My real name is Angostura Bitters von der Daiquiri und der Mojito. I was born a princess of an ancient Eastern European royal family that was overthrown in a violent coup 250 years ago and never heard from again....

YEP! Those are our kissing cousins forty-times removed. Are you one of those, my long-long-long lost cousin???

The choice entirely depends on what you want to accomplish. There's no right/wrong yes/no answer to this question.

I'd think the only exception or reason would be if your real name is Steven King or Nora Roberts or John Steinbeck. Otherwise, real names are just fine. If your work is good, your name will become your identity. Like bands, creepy crawly Beatles? Or something stupid like "The Doors"? Justin Beiber, really? J.K. Rowling, would it matter if she was any other name?
The work defines the identity, not that picking a good name will make your work sell better.
Selling a product is different, where a name might matter.

Thanks a bunch every one! The info you guys provided is very helpful and useful. Much appreciated! 😊👍
Just making a children's book. My first one. Its a bit of an experiment just to see if its worth my time. I did have success in the past working for others. I still don't wanna give up on that but I just wanted something to call my own.
