Before this author can write anything, I need to create background. You know, simple things like a name -- or names, since this person can also have a nom de plume -- and some history.
I'm open to suggestions!

The Best Author You Never Heard Of

In honor of Jean-Baptiste Botul, the non-existent philosopher who recently made news, I have decided to create a non-existent author.
Before this author can write anything, I need to create background. You know, simple things like a name -- or names, since this person can also have a nom de plume -- and some history.

I love the names, Claire. However, I was thinking of a dead fake American author. Someone who suffered a tragic death: alcohol, suicide, killed fighting with foreign insurgents.
Dead fake Americans? Let me see...
Christopher Hayes- the black sheep of a political dynasty, whose works only came to light after his mysterious early death. Fans accuse his family of covering up a more sordid tale of Hayes' death with a cover story of a "tragic accident".
I hope that helps a little! :)
Novelist Rory Persons disappeared in 1967, leaving a pregnant wife. Their son, Elvis, was born later that year.
