I can still manage to have characters with the same initials and have to change them.

It looks like you have yourself sorted out, though--so I wouldn't worry about it tripping you up. Love the name Kryssander by the way!!<br /><br />Also, Tyrean--I just wanted to say thank you for all of the comments and support you've given me. I've been bad about responding to blog comments lately and just wanted to tell you that your words mean the world to me!
