[stylist] FW: keeping poems, for Robert, Bridgit, Lynda, and Barbara, others

[Semirhage]

There is always publishing under a pen name if one is writing something that 
they don't want associated with their name for both writing and professional 
reasons. It can also avoid reader confusion. IF someone, for example, is 
famous for writing mysteries, then they decide to go for an erotica or 
fantasy or horror novel, they could use a pen name to avoid genre confusion 
and to keep the lines nicely divided in those cases where it's preferable. 
So there are many reasons to take a pen name and they're all useful. I and 
my husband do it for privacy, which is also another common reason.

I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed.
I get along with the voices inside of my head.
