I'm going to have a separate table for pennames. Lester del Rey will be last name del Rey, first name Lester. My problem will be the following: Therer are a number of writers who used several non de plummes, however there are some credited authors who are house names (Maxwell Grant is one, with no fewer than three writers writing the Shadow as Grant - Walter B. Gibson 285 of the 325, Ted Tinsley, and others) and it is this I'm having trouble normalizing. Thinking for those house names I'm going to have to refer to the story or issue to fully credit the corect writer, Any thoughts here are welcome. > > Of course, the author Eando Binder was actually two people (Edward and Oscar > Binder) but that doesn't count. Actually, it does, but it will be taken care of in the pennames table. And, for a period, one of the Binder brothers left and the remaining Binder continued to write as Eando Binder.
