here's a thing
I don't get
I currently know
7 people 
that are publishing 
or have published
books
not one of them 
write under
their own name
every one of them
uses a pseudonym
why?
I don't get it ....
why not write 
under your own name?
is it cos yer afraid the neighbours 
might find out?
is it cos you don't think yer own
name is "romantic" enough?
or cos yer afraid of the 
paparazzi? 
or is it that you've done something 
in your past that you are ashamed of?
are you in witness protection?
hiding from the bank?
an ex husband?
some of these people
are already operating under nicknames
(I am too...but everyone knows 
my name is Karen Brown - it says so
on my birth certificate)
seriously....
why not use yer own name?
color me

That's a good question...although the few people that I know that are published have used their own names...
Hell...if you decide to write some shit and don't want folks to know it's YOU, don't publish. DUH!
you mean you want me to try and write a serious book with a last name that no one can pronounce????
