Heming, John Winton: Find the Man; (1942), v1, 26 Feb 2024
A novelette by John Winton Heming, (1900-1953) whose considerable output seems to have vanished almost without trace.
Heming was a compulsive writer of plays, short stories, novels and non-fiction, and managed to make a rather sparse living at it in depression era Australia. During WW2, imports of all non-essentials ceased, and that included magazines and books. Heming, like a number of other Australian writers, filled this yawning gap by churning out hundreds of Western, Romance, Science Fiction, Crime, and other genre stories and novels under numerous pseudonyms. Westerns, for example, were by Tex Barton... A crime story in which a movie publicity stunt goes wrong. Interesting in that it was published in January 1942, but is set in 1946, when the author assumed that WW2 would safely be over, thereby dodging all the WW2 restrictions that would have made the plot impossible.
