Concerning Pseudonyms and other Publishing Perils

[Marky Lazer]

I can do that!!

LOL! I should clarify that Mark Robson is my real name, but I'll answer to most things. Oiy, you, works quite well! I never expected my books to sell in the way they have, so when I published my books I saw no need for a pseudonym. To be honest, in my case I still see no need for one. There are very few authors that become famous enough that they are pestered by press, or people wanting autographs. I am always flattered if someone recognises me.

An Edgerton by any other name is still a mighty fine writer.

Just checking in to say "hi," Teresa, from one formerly known as Rathilda.

 

[Teresa Edgerton]

I thought it would be you under that thinnest of disguises, Rathilda.

And I'm glad you finally stopped by.

How exciting to find out that there are other books out there for me to read! And here, I thought I was going to have to wait for the next in the RoU series! Now, all I have to do is get used to referring to you as Teresa...

Regarding the tracking down of Teresa's works, my favorite site for finding used books is the ABE Book Exchange Click the link to see what's availble of Teresa's (316 books as of this posting).

Thanks for posting this. I already have all her books but I am sure others will find this helpful. All of Teresa's book are well worth the effort of getting them.

As a follow-up, I managed to find Goblin Moon and The Gnomes Engine (both out of print) on eBay.

I also wanted to mention that while I do use both of these sources for used books, I generally only do so to get a signed or out-of-print copy. To support my favorite authors, I try very hard to always buy new copies whenever possible!

I still remember a story told by an ex-goalkeeper from Glasgow when he gave someone his name;
"Are you the famous James Herriot ?"
"No, I'm the real James Herriot."

The vet picked his nom de guerre from a Rangers team sheet.
