I was waiting until the server move happened before putting this up. I'd have gone crazy if it had been lost.

Anyway - here's the place for you to look for help with your plots! Post your questions here.

And hey... all you people already over 50K? YES I'M LOOKING AT YOU! Get in here and help these people out now that you don't have anything else to do! *grin*

So maybe this isn't really such a big deal...

But I've just noticed that four of the most influential people in my MC's life all have names that start with the same leter...(Artur, his cousin; Arlan, the king he first came to serve; Arith, a seeress and his first love; and now Adrion...whom I'm not quite sure of where that relationship will go)

Artur and Arlan have been around since book 1, and now Arlan is dead. Arith was a character originally with a different name, but I never felt that name fit and she suggested this one; she was only a passing character, however, as she is likely out of his life now...at least for a very long time.

And now the newest character, Adrion...whose name I had picked randomly ages ago.

I'm wondering if I should change his name at least. I hate having too many names starting with the same letter, but I hate to get stuck on names now.

so there's two A-named characters that are still hanging around? well, as a reader, and especially if it is a long book, I find that situation confusing. particularly if the characters are not frequently mentioned, and then not explained when they are mentioned again. it kind of depends on how you write it, though, so maybe wait until you're done and see how it feels? it's definitely something to consider, though.
