I wrote some stories I posted online some time ago and now I’m planning on following up that passion.
The think is I’d like to monetize them in some way but I don’t want people knowing they are mine.

Pseudonyms are fairly common.
If you go with traditional publishing, your agent can help you get going.
If you self publish, it can be trickier, but the major outlets are fine with a pen name for public use and inky using your real info for the back end. Amazon, Barnes and Noble, etc, they all are easy to deal with in that regard.
But if you’re trying to do all of your own distribution and payment, you’d likely want to talk to a good cpa or attorney about how to set things up so you don’t fuck up taxes and whatnot, while still being publicly unnamed under your real ID.
Fwiw, unless you’re also pretty good at marketing, monetizing isn’t easy. It’s one thing to have your stuff out there, and another entirely to have people know it exists, and then spend money on it.
