Poll #63: Pen Names

[Andy]

Do you, or have you ever used a pen name or pseudonym (written material only - online usernames don't count) ;)

[jordanisonfire]

My pseudonym is Saint Jacky. Mostly because theres a Saint Jacky in all of my stories, even if the stories aren't remotely related.

[Andy]

So why'd you change your username?

[jordanisonfire]

Cuz Shadow is lame.

[Liziy]

I've never really written anything worth publishing, but my pen is Mallory Tabby.

[Emberwood]

The thing is with me, I have to have a pen name. I can't write without one. I think it's a psychology thing... When I'm myself, I can't write, but when I'm someone else (hence the pen name) I become whoever my character is, so I can write better opposed to when I write without a pen name. That's why I can't write in third-person. It's really hard for me.:)

My pen name is Emberwood. Yes, it's my user name for a lot of things, but I've never written a piece without one. Before Emberwood, it was Hedwig in memory of my cockatiel (not the Harry Potter owl). Even though, my bird was named after the owl in Harry Potter...

:P

Well, usually I post my works only in the net, so, my nick names sort of becomes my pen name, but I have an official pen name to, its Ellen Landara. :) But I haven't used it so far very often.

[avettica]

When I do use mine it's The Fourth Black Sister.

[NAT says RAWR.]

I only post my stuff online so nope.

[FayGee]

No, I've never had a way too, because my work only gets posted on YWO and in our school mag.

[Clawfire]

Nope!!!!!!

[SapphireSeaBird]

I've never had the need for a pen name, since my work has only ever been put on YWO or done for school, in which case I obviously have to use my real name.
But if I were to get something published, I probably would use one

[kito42]

Mine is Jason Stark. i just think it sounds cool. never published anything though.

[Zyanya]

I have never published anything, but Zyanya is a pen name of sorts for me.
