But it's funny when news hits you out of the blue like that. You think it'd get all muddly really fast. Instead, I felt strangely calm. I let my work know, booked surgery, and my parents jumped on the plane from NZ.

Not only could a good pen name give you ideal placement on the shelves, it could also make you more memorable, accessible, and marketable. In a crowded and competitive world of writers, it was important to be smart about these things.
