I stand corrected. However, I should've been more explicit. I
created a method that combines multiple fields on the Author model.
For example:
def Author(models.Model):
first_name = models.CharField()
last_name = models.CharField()
def get_full_name(self):
return self.first_name + ' ' + self.last_name
I've tried to access "author__get_full_name" but have not been
successful.
