Individual evidence

  1. According to his own statement in Clarissa's Krambude. Authors tell of their pseudonyms , Novum, 2011, ISBN 978-3-99003-914-4 , p. 460 f., Jenny Winter is a collective pseudonym under which a series of horse stories from VPM-Verlag together with someone she does not know male writers were published. She is named as the author of the four titles mentioned in this book. The alleged biography of a Jenny Winter with the real name Jennifer Winter (* 1965 in Munich) at loewe-verlag.de ( memento from October 29, 2013 in the Internet Archive ) is likely to be fictitious.
