I was wondering first if anyone else had trouble coming up with names for their characters. It is absolutely impossible for me to use common names for mine--they either have to be names I made up or names that translate literally into something (Cerridwynn being one of my favorite names, it means "sacred poetry.") I can stare at the monitor for hours trying to think of the right name. The second I have it, I'm off, but I spend a LOT of time on the baby name sites.

Second, there's a lot of authors posting here asking for proofreaders, and I'll volunteer. I've been writing for over a decade now (scary thought--I'm getting old) and I was lucky enough to have some outstanding teachers who showed me what to look for. No snuff, scat, or bestiality, though, please. There's some subject matter I can't get past. *sheepish smile*
