Informative read, Ciel. Another thing I find diffcult when reading a story with many characters is the similarity in names: now was that Penderfield or Perdergist who had the black cat that scratched the maid? Is it worth it to read back and see?

Excellent article, and right in line with something I've been thinking
about - how the character's name is part of his/her description. It would be a big fat mistake to name a delicate faerie creature something like Klump...
