Adair County authors: Miss Noma Dix Winston Update, January 26, 2024: In 1941, and again later in the 1940s, the Adair County News reported that Miss Noma Dix Winston had published short stories in American Magazine under the pen name Winston Norman. After a lengthy correspondence with the actual Winston Norman's daughter, Christine Klukkert, we are updating our 2005 article (and another followup) to definitively state that Winston Norman authored the short stories that we had incorrectly attributed to Miss Noma Dix Winston. Based on the papers provided by Christine, we are convinced that the Adair County News incorrectly reported on Miss Noma Dix Winston's career back in 1941. We haven't been able to dig up any further information about what role she might have played in the stories' publication, or how the ACN came to repeatedly get the record wrong. Our apologies to the Norman estate for the error. --Pen Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2013-05-17 04:35:13 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Books
