In David Foster Wallace's recently released book of essays Consider
the Lobster (italics not available on Google Answers), he uses the
phrase "your correspondents" consistently to describe the authors in
the essay "Big Red Son."

On the copyright page of the book, he notes with a "dagger mark" (not
reproducable here on Google answers, but like a plus sign with an
elongated lower half) that the original article (which appeared in
Premiere magazine) was written "bipseudonymously," which I assume
means using two fictitious names (as the word does not appear in the
OED), and that this is the reason he uses "correspondents" and "we."

What were the two names?
This is my primary question (and this is what I'm paying to get
answered), but if possible, why did Foster Wallace use these names?

So far all I have been able to track down, it seems, is that the
article appeared in the September 1998 issue...

Anyone else....(local library?)

Further searching has found a person who has the Article (and I assume
the psudeos with it) in PDF format directly from the magazine...you
can follow the discussion and email him here:

Good Luck!

There was no other writer.  He wrote the piece for Premier Magazine
and did it under a pseudonym or, more accurately, two pseudonyms.   He
explains, in the front section of the collection, that he kept certain
strange pronoun usages from the original pieces because to change them
(the other example being in the mcain piece) would make the essays
sound and feel too dissonant to his ear.

The names he used in the premier piece were: Willem R. deGroot and
Matt Rundlet. Put those names in Google and it will all become clear.

great. thank you.
