Can you tell me what Is a Pen Name?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A pen name is a name an author publishes a book under. It isn't their real name, it's only the name they go by when writing books.

Many female authors used male names to publish their books in time periods such as 1700s or 1800s, when women weren't thought of as smart and they didn't have rights. The male names were their pen names, used so that people would respect them.

Examples in modern day (pen name --> real name):
J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter) --> Joanne Kathleen Rowling
Lemony Snicket (Series of Unfortunate Events) --> Daniel Handler
Answer 2
Answer: A 'pen name' is the name a writer uses on the things he writes. It doesn't have to be
his real name.

The French phrase is "nom de plume" . . . "name of the pen".

An example:

In the 19th Century (the 18 hundreds), there were several great French novels
that were written by George Sand, and they became very popular.

Except that George Sand was really a lady named Armandine Aurore Lucille Dupin,
who was married and had two children.

From an early age, Ernest Shackleton was drawn to the sea. (1) While he loved to read because it fueled his appetite for adventure, he was often bored in school. His father, a doctor, wanted Ernest to pursue medicine, but he accepted the boy’s restless nature and allowed him to join a southbound ship’s crew when he was sixteen. (2) His first experience at sea in 1890 was a difficult one, but Shackleton wasn’t discouraged. In fact, he dreamed of going even farther south to mysterious Antarctica. (3) By age twenty-four, Shackleton had qualified to be a ship’s commander. In 1899, he learned that the Royal Geographical Society was organizing an expedition to the Antarctic. He volunteered for the venture, led by Robert Falcon Scott, and sailed on the Discovery expedition; however, midway through the trip he became ill and was sent home, much to his disappointment.

Answers

Answer:

A. howls

Explanation:

The verb "howl" in this sentence has to be in agreement with the word "pack" and not with the word "wolves", because the phrase says that one (1) pack of wolves howled, in this case "one pack" this in the singular, then the verb has to be in the singular also, in this case, the right alternative is "howls".

Ethan did his best to avoid looking at T.J. and Joey when he said, "Yeah, I'm not going to be able to go to the concert. Brandon's got a doctor’s appointment. I have to help my mom get him in and out of the car and the doctor's office." Ethan’s brother Brandon did not have a doctor's appointment. Ethan did not want his friends to know the truth. His mom said that he could not go to the concert. Unlike Joey’s and T.J.’s moms, his mom was strict. As a result, he often found himself in situations like the one in which he currently found himself. He continued expanding his excuse. He talked about Brandon’s health problems, about wanting to spend time with Brandon, about being the only person who could help his mom. Some of it was true. Some of it was not. It did not really matter. T.J. and Joey had stopped listening. Neither friend was actually foolish enough to think that Ethan would be able to go to the concert. They knew that his mom was strict. They doubted the story about Brandon’s doctor’s appointment. However, they chose not to say anything. Knowing that Ethan was touchy when conversation turned towards his mother’s rules, they wanted to help him save face. They asked him to go to the concert because they did not want him to feel left out.T.J. and Joey are portrayed as being?A. CRUELB. SELFISHC. DISHONEST D. CONSIDERATE
