Matt Douglas sounds like Mike Douglas. Could help… or not, if people remember the Mike and can't find you. Unless you go with something like Shizzy McCreepy, neither sounds more 'horrorish'
Thanks for your input on this thread, Skimom.
I'm really torn and the poll, which is 50/50 at the moment, hasn't helped much, unfortunately. I kind of want to use Matt Douglas, but as you rightly point out, it would be a whole lot easier to use my real name.
Maybe I should go for something like Psycho Deathman and be done with it?!

Matt Douglas...people cruising the aisle come across the "Ds" before they hit most of the other letters of the alphabet...so they see Matt Batt Douglas...Matt Bat Bo Batt...Fee fy fo phat...anyway...unless they approach from the other end of the aisle then you're screwed cause they stop at SK...maybe have two names. Use both...you get people coming and going.
Matt Douglas.
I named my pen Toby, after another favorite appendage.
I voted for Matt Seymour, dammit, so if you choose Matt Douglas, fine, but I'll refuse to read any of your books. I'll buy them, though, because they'll have greater resale value, since the name Matt Douglas seems more attractive to people.
