From JohnScalzi, the Blogfather, we have a new Weekend Assignment #159: Your Pen Name
You've decided to become a writer under a pen name. What pen name do you choose? Because, after all, writers use pen names all the time -- sometimes to maintain anonymity, sometimes to start a new career when their writing career under their real name has crashed and burned, and sometimes just because they want a different name than the one they were born with. You can assume any of the reasons for taking up a pen name. (No fair using a name that's taken: Your pen name can't be "Steve King" or "Jonathan Grisham" or some such.)
Hmm.. I think I would go by my intials from my maiden name, JAC with my married last name, Langley. Jack Langley, or J.A.C. Langley, or maybe just Jackie Langley. Or may be I should just go for Jules Langley. It sounds so British and proper---a name used for a man or a woman, like Jack. Or.. I might just skip that all together and just go by J. A. Costa. It's sometimes good to add a little mystery to a name; I think. Hmm...decisions, decisions.. I must work on this one.
Extra Credit: Using this Anagram Maker, share an amusing anagram of your name.
Oh, this was fun! Here is one using my full name! Oh joy, just call me:
