My book out right now is under J.J. Oxendine, my married last name. It is a psychological suspense novella. However, the book I am currently working on is going to be a full length romance novel. I am debating on using a pen name for this genre. I read somewhere that readers prefer writers with names that are easy to pronounce and easy to spell, making it simple to remember. Do you think this is true? Do you think this hurts sales or makes it difficult to brand yourself if the last name is long and hard to say or do you feel this has no bearing on it at all if the writing is something they like? Thanks!!
