Weird and interesting TV facts

[IceBlade]

So.... this could be either the weirdest coincidence ever, or just a completely random "Wow, that is just crazy freakin' timing!"

So my roommate is completely obsessed with MTV's "The Real World" after they filmed where we lived "DC" and she decided to relive all of her old real world memories with box sets etc. She's currently watching the London one from the mid-90s. As she's watching, I'm reading up on Robin Hobb's wikipedia page to see when the next book will be released. Turns out one of the RW kids (obviously an adult now) is named "Kat Ogden" from Washington via Kodiak Island, not 10 seconds after I skimmed over the blurb about the author's real name being Margaret Ogden and hailing from WA via Kodiak Island.

I checked the wild wonderful internet quickly and then got bored when I found nothing and came here instead. Is it possible that Robin Hobb's kid/niece/cousin/etc was on the real world and this was the crazy strange way I discovered it? Ages seem about right, her MTV bio says her mom is a freelance author (all the info i could find).

If so, that is one of the most random meldings of internet, tv, books and just weird "Hey I wonder if..." of all time for me. If it's not, that is just a CRAZY coincidence!

Anyone know?
