I started out with M/F and will keep that going with my current name, maybe add in a M/F/M here and there but the other WIP will be under Lia Michaels.Tammy Dennings Maggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17551291117492287824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8850524524995973615.post-63483881054225519342011-10-28T17:04:34.738-05:002011-10-28T17:04:34.738-05:00Enjoyed the informative post, Pat.

I like the idea of helping your readers keep the genres separate.<br /><br />Hugs, Kari Thomas, www.authorkari.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8850524524995973615.post-5382536153501761462011-10-27T18:19:36.471-05:002011-10-27T18:19:36.471-05:00Pat, yeah, I agree.

Actors get to play various roles, so why not authors... of course, sometimes fans don't like it when their fave actor stretches hisher wings.Savanna Kougarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15698138048388102279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8850524524995973615.post-90235668737049845752011-10-27T16:32:09.732-05:002011-10-27T16:32:09.732-05:00I think you're okay with one name for M/F and ...I think you're okay with one name for M/F and female-oriented menages. However, I'm doing guy on guy stuff so that should probably be separate. As long as my real name's on the check, I don't care what the byline is.Pat C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10531462055912377327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8850524524995973615.post-47520361492453506832011-10-27T16:26:40.356-05:002011-10-27T16:26:40.356-05:00Good gosh almighty, Pat, P.E., I'm lost in tho...Good gosh almighty, Pat, P.E., I'm lost in those alternate-name woods, which is probably good because as a reader I'll only care about which genre/sex orientation your book is... <br /><br />Well, at this point I'm not giving up my pen name to distinguish between m/f erotic romances and the menages I write... it's all about the heroine being the focus. <br /><br />However, I do have some erotic romances written in the nineties that if I Indie-pub them, I will likely use another pen name. Simply because both the writing style and the approach/premise are highly experimental. <br /><br />So, anyhoo... I guess I'm pen-name trapped.Savanna Kougarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15698138048388102279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8850524524995973615.post-79016428932410295542011-10-27T15:23:19.387-05:002011-10-27T15:23:19.387-05:00Update: just found out the anthology that bought &...Update: just found out the anthology that bought "Gerry's" horror story last year has been cancelled, so his career's back to square one.
