Pen Names

17 Years Ago


I have thought of go under pseudonym, but am not sure if it is the right thing. Does anyone have suggestions or experience?

Going under a false name gives you a power that most are not allowed, to say whatever you want and not be afraid of repecussions(sp?) It allows you to write however you want and not worry about it. Also if you are already an established writer of one style, a false name allows you to pick up the pen in another, whlie still being accepted by an audience. Many writers have done so and done well. Anne Rice and Steven King for example, but it is completly up to you.
