Just a quick post today.

Looks like I am going to be a bit swamped in the coming days.

I have crits which I am about to turn my attention to once I finish faffing about on the internet.

I'm in the middle of a short story which yesterday turned from a paranormal to the contemporary it actually wanted to be. Which is good because the market apparently prefers contemporaries at the moment. Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] crystaljordan for the brainstorming! :) So I'm rewriting it.

In the mean time my edits for Soul Fire (To Regain Heaven that was) arrived. Among other things I have to either find a way to make Aoife easily pronouncible for an American reader or find another suitible name from Irish legends which is (that isn't Morrigan and Emer as I'm already using them). This particular Aoife is a villain. Any suggestions? :)

And sadly, we had a death in the family so I will probably be travelling to the UK at the end of next week. No dates as yet. Work, writing and renaming ancient Irish sorceresses will have to fall in around that.

A-oh-fee, right?

It took me until the Harry Potter movies came out to pronounce Hermione's name correctly...

Ee-fah - this is the problem. It looks nothing like it sounds... *sigh*

Wondering about Liannan - but it might be too close to LeanĂ¡n Sidhe which is what the character is.

I poked around a naming website and came up with these.

Aileen, (close to an American Eileen.)
Aislin.
Breda
Bree
Brianna
Brigid
Caitlin
Caitria
etc...
