S.E. Hinton uses her initials so people don't assume her book isn't well written. She doesn't want people underestimate the writing because she is a girl.
S.E. Hinton's pen name is S.E. Hinton. She chose to use her initials rather than her full name, Susan Eloise Hinton, to appeal to a gender-neutral audience when she first started publishing her books.
It's because if the people know that the author is a female, it may affect the sales of the book; meaning that people may not buy it. Thus, they thought it was better if she put short form for her name(:

S.E. Hinton chose to use her initials rather than her full name, Susan Eloise Hinton, to avoid any potential gender bias or discrimination in the male-dominated field of young adult literature when she published her first novel, "The Outsiders," at the age of 17.
Hinton's publisher suggested she use her initials instead of her first name so that male reviewers would not ignore the novel for having been written by a female. (Taken from S.E. Hinton answer on WikiAnswers).
