Yeah, Janet, I noticed the typo in Brown's name too late.
I didn't meant to imply any impropriety because Kennedy had blurbed Dan Brown previously. I only added the fact because it enhanced the chances that the Dan Brown who won the New Criterion Prize was the same one I'd identified, since if Kennedy blurbed his book, it was probably solidly formalist and since he liked Brown's earlier work he probably liked his newer work as well.
