** The second half of ''Hearts In Atlantis'' is not horror at all; rather, it's a romance/political/historial-fiction/college-story/something-else that's described on at least one cover as "New Fiction" about the Vietnam War and its aftereffects.

** His books under the [[ItWasHisSled Richard Bachman pseudonym]] sometimes vary from the standard template, too. ''The Long Walk'' and ''The Running Man'' are more thrillers than anything, ''Blaze'' is a drama masquerading as crime fiction, and both ''Roadwork'' and ''Rage'' (the latter no longer published due to references to school shootings) are realist dramas of a sort. None of them have supernatural elements. ''Thinner'' and ''The Regulators'' play closer to type, though.

* EliezerYudkowsky is most well-known for the blog LessWrong, as well as having written ThreeWorldsCollide, and the fanfic Fanfic/HarryPotterAndTheMethodsOfRationality, which are more or less AuthorTracts about his view of rationality. He also wrote [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5731071/1/Peggy_Susie Peggy Susie]], which is a parody of TheTerminator [[FusionFic using Calvin and Hobbes characters]], which contains very little philosophical speculation.
* [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1747252/superstarultra superstarultra]] is an author well-known in the HaruhiSuzumiya fandom for his [[CrackFic crackfics]]. He is also in the process of writing a horror-story collection. Then again, [[SlidingScaleOfComedyAndHorror perhaps this is to be expected.]]

*Ween's ''12 Golden Country Greats'' was a country album, which used veteran country session musicians as a backing band. Though they'd had the odd country-influenced song before and since, it was still a pretty unexpected turn, especially because they generally played it straight (well, aside from "Piss Up A Rope" and "Mr. Richard Smoker" anyway).
