The Wall Street Journal recently published an article about fiction authors who adopt pseudonyms to overcome the computerized sales history of previous books. This is nothing new - for hundreds of years, authors have been using pen names for various reasons. Women authors in the late 1800s and early 1900s often chose to use a pen name because they felt they would not be taken seriously as women writers.
