Thanks for your feedback, Lisa. There’s a long literary history of pseudonyms. I’ve used one myself including a movie from which I removed my name. If it can help mitigate at least some potential for a biased read, it would seem to be a reasonable option. Hopefully, things will continue to change so the need to alter one’s name becomes unnecessary.
