Publishing with Pen Name? http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/novel-draft-aftercare/threads/50168 audiii When you write a query letter, do you use your pen name when you sign off, or do you mention your real name? Or do you sign off with your real name but mention your pen name, or vice versa? Or do you just write about your pen name in the query letter? I think that's pretty self explanatory.

My queries were all done under my real name and stated I was writing as Voirey Linger. Contracts are also made under my real name.
