(Windom) Wayne Robbins

[edit]

Wayne Robbins was a weird menace, western, and mystery writer in his own right, rather than a nom de plume for Cox. The preponderance of his work was in the Popular Publications catalog. I will create a comprehensive page for him shortly and then remove the redirect to Cox. As a relation, I have access to his correspondence with PP, copies of the pulps in which his stories were published, some original typescripts and unpublished matter, and a thorough index of his work. His brother Ormond Robbins also wrote in the same genres, most notably as Dane Gregory in detective fiction, beginning the "defective detective" device that was in vogue for a short time. I will provide citations for both authors from recent anthologies and works on pulp history. It will take me a bit to put the two articles together. In the mean time, feel free to leave any suggestions below. Pulsadinura (talk) 19:23, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wayne Robbins correction

[edit]

I have replaced the redirect from Wayne Robbins to William Robert Cox with the bio and biblio content mentioned above. I have a user page now so feel free to make any suggestions there. Pulsadinura (talk) 20:36, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I removed Wayne Robbins from the list of Cox's pen names. If you feel I have done so mistakenly, please get in touch with me. Pulsadinura (talk) 20:44, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"At least seven" changed to "At least six pen names." An oversight from the last edit. Pulsadinura (talk) 00:35, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
