I don't have any books published and so far only one short story published but what if as a woman you've had lots of publications under your maiden name and then you get married.
Do you continue to publish under your maiden name? Do you switch to your married name? Or do you save your married name to write in a different genre? You write Hard SF now but you want to switch category romance?
There are also those of us who have that feeling of vengeance against the people who thought we couldn't accomplish our writing goals. If our last name is different would they recognize it. If we actually sent them the published book with a little written inscription saying nya nya nya.
Just for the record my answer is I'll use my married name when I get published since I have nothing of significance published now under my maiden name.
