Question

Can I copyright a pseudonym and retain all rights to the work, as well as ensure confidentiality/anonymity? If so, how?



Answer

You register the copyright for a work of authorship, not the name under which the work is developed. You can use any name you wish to register the work.

There is a box on the copyright registration form asking whether the name given for registration is a pseudonym. Check the box.
