What is a "pen name"?
A pen name is an alternate name that an author uses instead of their real name when publishing their work. Authors may adopt a pen name for reasons such as maintaining privacy, distinguishing between different types of writing, or choosing a more memorable or marketable name. Pen names can help authors manage their reputation and create a unique identity for their literary works.
