when you write stuff, you have to publish under a full name typically.

i’m wondering if i should use a pen name or not.

would it draw interest to or away from my writing if i used my real first name of Thor?

@thor hmm it should not.

This is the issue people are judgemental based on age, race, gender etc. Should not happen and people should not need to change to be accepted.

it is others who need to change the attitude.

You have already suggested you are from Norway, so that explains name being Thor, which IIRC is the Norse god of war.

Maybe we can sort of paraphrase Martin Luther king, judge me by the quality of my writing.
