Does anyone have experience using a #penName / #pseudonym ideally for online publishing? I want to add one of those "copyright (date) (name)" things to the chapters of my webnovel (I know it's extremely difficult to enforce without hiring a lawyer, but better than nothing I guess) but I reeeally don't want to put my real name (might as well make it slightly challenging for stalkers) so I wanted to use a pseudonym...but do I need to have legally registered that pseudonym somewhere first?

Proteus is also a type of bacteria, one of the smallest and most fundamental life forms. It reminds me that we are constantly changing, and always connected in ways that run deeper than the contributions of humankind. #name #moniker #penname

The other thing about this review is that it’s for a pen name, and it is quite interesting to discover the level of detachment I felt reading it.

I actively avoid reading reviews, or even catching sight of star ratings, for my “real” books. But for the pen name, I’m like, “oh, four stars is it? Let’s have a look.”

I’m not sure if it’s because the pen name adds a buffer, or if, because they’re short and only take a weekend to throw together, I’m less attached in general.

I've moved my Your Autistic Life profile from Chrome to Firefox. It was *mostly* painless. The most painful thing was that it did not replicate my open tabs.

(By the way, if you did not know this. Firefox has a way to import your Chrome data. Google it! :madjoy: )

I have many pen names and I have one profile for each in Chrome, so I'm not done yet. I've moved one other profile. I still need to move my... er... plain boring profile. (I mean one I created first, before I had any pen name.)

There are two profiles that won't get moved. One is for a pen name that I killed last week. The other one is for a pen name I'm going to kill soon.

I'm trying to concentrate on Your Autistic Life.

#HanHeiger — the #penname of #HansNeumann — told the story of #ConcentrationCamp #survivor #JosefKohout, who wanted to remain #anonymous, due to the fact that sections of #Paragraph175—the #antisodomy #law that the #Nazis used to #prosecute people accused of “engaging in #homosexual #activity”—were still part of the country’s #penalcode.

As I am comitting more and more time to my #writing and interacting with the #writingcommunity I decided to switch over to my #penname. This is a #change I maybe should have made earlier, but better now than never. I also wrote a short #kofi post about it.

People of @bookstodon,

I'm very curious today (for current reasons) about your opinion and experiences regarding pen names.

You see, I #amReading currently a novel with an occult urban fantasy setting, and the chosen pen name (Lilith Saintcrow) seems to be very up-front about this.

What about you? Have you examples of such obvious, punch in the face pen names, and if so, what are your thoughts about it?

Authors who write across genres: Do you feel it's a good idea to have a genre-dedicated pen name, or do you publish all your stuff, regardless of genre, under the same name (real or pen)?
