Should you write under a pen name? Choosing your author name is the first step in building your author platform. As an author, your name is your brand, and as you grow your audience it should become more and more recognizable. There are several situations that may cause you to want to choose a pen name, but you need to consider a few things first to make sure you pick the right pen name for your career as a writer. Are you okay with keeping your pen name forever? Have you checked to see if your pen name already belongs to someone famous? Are you choosing a pen name to distance yourself from something? The last point is vital to consider when it comes to writing various genres, so you might wanna stick around! 🧐
