Pen name.

Hmm You'll know me as Mokkelke on the internet, some tend to call me Mo, others know my real name and call me Tan or Tanja. Having decided I will go the self publish route with SIW (and started working on the writing part of that) I do realize that Mokkelke isn't really THE catching name you want to see on the cover of a book. IMO it's fine to use on Lit and similar sites but when you want to go for the masses I believe a somewhat more recognizable pen name would be more fitting.
So which one should or could I take? Anyone has suggestion ideas? I'm open for about anything if it has a nice ring to it. Full name being Tanja Jonckheer. I'd say have a try, brainstorm and post suggestions.

  1. What about Tanja Heer short but keeping part of your full name or short and sweet Tan Jon but it sounds more like a male name
    or to make it sound exotic like Tanja Mokke keeping a little of your writers name as well as real one
    well it is a couple of suggestions anyway
