This is such a great question and one I wonder about, too. I don't have a novel, but I tend to keep my "real" and LJ lives separate because this is my safe space and I like keeping it that way. I have only ever met two fandom people and I find myself using my real name with them.
I'm not worried about other fandom folks knowing who I am so much as I am worried about non-fandom folk knowing about Fantasyfiend09.
And isn't that a mouthful? Why didn't I choose a cute, short username? And I am NOT going by Fantasy (porn star name much?), so that leaves Fiend, which isn't very friendly either. *sigh* I so need to rename my account.
