Any possible Nome de Plume in E-books?
I wonder if any established, well renowned, author has tried to self-publish something in E-publishing under a pen name, just to find out if his/her style would be recognized and appreciated? Maybe not a novel, but a short story or novella. Perhaps in a totally different genre -- say a romantic love story by Stephen King under the name Georgina Hime. Anyone ever encountered texts that feel familiar?

I remember back in the 70's I read a book that was rumored to be by J.D. Salinger under another name. Let me google that....
Yep. "Birdy," by William Wharton. Apparently later it was determined that William Wharton was actually a writer by the name of Albert du Aime. At the time, though, I believed it, since I was fresh out of high school and had so recently read "Catcher in the Rye." |
