Shared pseudonyms

edit

Published works by Odom include some under shared pseudonyms. SFE3 identifies some House Names. (There may also be some co-written works under a joint pseudonym.)

Today the Library of Congress catalog links several other names to this Mel Odom and doesn't do much to identify shared pseud. --perhaps because it doesn't know much or anything about its use by other writers. Therefore, some books in LC Catalog may be (at least indirectly) credited to Odom but written by others.

I added a WARNING to External links.

  • Mel Odom at Library of Congress, with 85 library catalog records under that name, and several linked pseudonyms (WARNING: LC may credit Odom alone for work under shared pseudonyms)
