William Walker Atkinson

aka Theron Q. Dumont, aka Yogi Ramacharaka, aka Swami Bhakta Vishita, aka Swami Panchadasi, aka Theodore Sheldon, aka Magus Incognito, aka Frederick Vollrath, aka O. Hashnu Hara, aka A. Gould, aka Dr. Franklin L. Dubois. This isn't a complete list. He wrote an estimated 100 books, all in the last 30 years of his life.
Every few years occultists will discover five or six new names that were probably just W.W. Atkinson under a pseudonym. A few years ago, people figured out that he was probably one of the Three Initiates who wrote the Kybalion. Recently, people have been starting to theorize that it's possible the other two initiates didn't even exist, and that he's actually all three initiates.
Originally people thought he was just some B-list Blavatsky student, but it's increasingly likely that he's actually one of the most prolific occultists in history.

Interdasting.

I personally don't care about the subject of the occult and New Thought, but I do like a good grift!

Has anyone thought about using text analysis or other statistical methods to find correlations in the writings across pseudonymous authors?

I smell a research paper!
