Choice: [A]: "comma" — is INCORRECT. Note that placing a "comma" would result in an error known as "comma splice".
___________________________________________________________
Choice: [C]: "period" — is INCORRECT. Note that placing a "period" would be incorrect. Doing so would result in a new sentence that does not begin with a capital letter.
____________________________________________________________
Choice: [D]: "no punctuation is needed" —is INCORRECT. Note that if the statement were left alone, the statement would be a "<u>run-on sentence</u>".

The correct answer is: [B]: "semicolon". If a new sentence could be formed; and if the ideas could connect; it is acceptable to place a "semicolon" between the "two potential statements to form one statement" ; and to NOT CAPITALIZE the first word of the "second [potential sentence]" —<u>unless</u> that "[second potential sentence] begins with a proper pronoun.

A pen name is a name an author publishes a book under. It isn't their real name, it's only the name they go by when writing books.
Many female authors used male names to publish their books in time periods such as 1700s or 1800s, when women weren't thought of as smart and they didn't have rights. The male names were their pen names, used so that people would respect them.
<em>Examples in modern day (pen name --> real name):</em>
J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter) --> Joanne Kathleen Rowling
Lemony Snicket (Series of Unfortunate Events) --> Daniel Handler
