Now I'm stuck with it.<BR/><BR/>Writing under more than one name is owning more than one business.

My son recently asked me something about why Stephen King would publish under the name Richard Bachman (I think this was in response to something I said about "Blaze" King's latest Bachman. And I commented that there are days when I suspect there's only one author writing under a whole hell of a lot of pseudonyms, and they're all being published by Stephen King. Now I wonder if it's all Dean Koontz. Maybe Stephen King is Dean Koontz.

For my role, I created a bunch of fake book covers for my "series" which I printed out at Kinko's and wrapped around real books. Nice props. For those, my name of "Bukk Hammerhand."<BR/><BR/>Bukk, as it happens, is Bill, except you happen to have moved your right hand one set of keys to the left on the keyboard. Kuje tgus.<BR/><BR/>So if I ever end up needing a pen name, I might have one already! The name is Bukk.
