Indeed, I did. What’s more, when I investigated more closely, I recognised that I had a real resistance to inventing names that started with vowels. How weird’s that? So now I keep an alphabetical list of names beside me and if I need to invent a new one I check for an appropriate underused initial letter and use that. A bit abitrary, but at least I have fewer M names.

But what I really wanted to say is, The Books Are Here (with all their S’s!) and I look forward to reading them immensely! Thank you!
