  No idea why someone down voted this comment. It’s pretty much all there is to it. Where ever you’re publishing / monetising can have your real name for financial and legal aspects. But the name you put as the author of the stories / books can be whatever you like (probably not the same as someone else who publishes in your field…)

    So I should stop publishing as Steven Kyng?

      Yes. That implies you are on the same level as Stephen King.

      You should publish as Steven Emperor ;)

      Stephen King’s alter ego is Richard Bachman
