Question: Nevil Shute and J. M. Coetzee, have which occupation in common?

Context paragraphs:
Australian science fiction: Australia, unlike Europe, does not have a long history in the genre of science fiction.  Nevil Shute's "On the Beach", published in 1957, and filmed in 1959, was perhaps the first notable international success.  Though not born in Australia, Shute spent his latter years there, and the book was set in Australia.  It might have been worse had the imports of American pulp magazines not been restricted during WWII, forcing local writers into the field.  Various compilation magazines began appearing in the 1960s and the field has continued to expand into some significance.  Today Australia has a thriving SF/Fantasy genre with names recognised around the world.  In 2013 a trilogy by Sydney-born Ben Peek was sold at auction to a UK publisher for a six-figure deal .

Summertime (novel): Summertime is a 2009 novel by South African-born Nobel laureate J. M. Coetzee.  It is the third in a series of fictionalized memoirs by Coetzee (the first two being "" and "") and details the life of one John Coetzee from the perspective of five people who have known him.  The novel largely takes place in the mid to late 1970s, largely in Cape Town, although there are also important scenes in more remote South African settings.  While there are obvious similarities between the actual writer of the novel, J. M. Coetzee, and the subject of the novel, John Coetzee, there are some differences - most notably that the John Coetzee of the novel is reported as having died.  Within the novel, the opinions and thoughts of the five people are compiled and interpreted by a fictitious biographer, who also adds fragments from John Coetzee's notebooks.  It was shortlisted for the 2009 Booker Prize.  Coetzee was already a two-time winner of the award and it is for this reason that literary commentator Merritt Moseley believes he did not win it for "Summertime".
