Weekly Plot Help - Week of October 27th
Wow, by Saturday NaNo will have begun and we will be heading into the craziness. Are you ready?
... come on, that was weak. ARE YOU READY?!
*grins* Ok, that was better.
Anyway, here's your plot help post for the week. Simple as always.
Add a comment with the help you need. Don't be shy. We're all writers here, and you never know, someone might give you a new plot bunny to add to your NaNo.
Reply to others and help them. You might be the one holding that bunny.
And just be awesome :)

Overused name or reference?
The Elyri have a name for this race, the phae k'kaira, which means something akin to 'those who came before'. At the moment, the Teren's simply call them the Others.
My question is, is calling them Other's too cliched and over used? Should I come up with another name for them? Any suggestions or thoughts or opinions? Maybe the fact that I'm questioning it means it is too common...or maybe it is just my own paranoia, lol!
Thanks in advance.

Make any sense?

So, I think it has cultural and linguistic precedence, but it can sound a bit weird because of the way "we" think. (I'm not sure who "we" are - Western culture? English speakers? just me?)
