A question for any/all of your authors who'd like to answer: how did they decide whether or not to use a pen name, and if they chose to use one, how did they pick it?

Among the authors publishing with IP, we have authors using their real names, using variations on their real names, and using pen names that in no way resembled their real names. It’s a little different for everyone, so we’ll tag this and ask IP authors who have thoughts on the subject to chime in.
