We may have to rename the group to "Where did everybody go?"

The Medieval/Fantasy Magic group is very active. A bunch of us set up shop there years ago, each with a single thread about our respective WIP. We use the threads for brainstorming, writing questions, additional feedback about a review, and sometimes just for fun. I sometimes encourage new users to create a thread there for their own stories. Some of the threads aren't even about fantasy. At least three are sci-fi. My new thread is for a supernatural thriller. I considered placing it in the Mysteries & Thrillers group, but no one posts there. I tried out the Sci-fi group years ago, but couldn't get much feedback, so I moved to the Medieval group. I'm surprised people don't set up little cliques like ours in other groups. I've found the threads invaluable to my writing.

Thanks, Jeff. I misunderstood your review.

I'm still interested in the original question, though. Do I use both Joseph's mother and Regent to reduce repetition, or stick with Joseph's mother? Ditto for his father, the Prince Consort. What about Crown Prince instead of Joseph? I do at times refer to Joseph as a teen, which I think is fine. The others I'm not sure about.

I returned Write Great Fiction - Revision and Self-Editing. It's a good book on writing, but I'm looking for a book on editing. Found one called Self-Editing for Fiction Writers, written by a pair of professional editors. It's in its 2nd edition and highly rated (500 reviews).

If you produce garbage tech, you need a lofty name.

One Company to Rule Them All

Since T^3 reminds Amy of Terminator 3, what about: Reliable Systems?

Fyi, I reserve the right to go with T^3, although the name probably won't be explained until well into act one.

Technically, it will be called T to the power of 3. I'll consider T-Cubed, although I don't like it very much. A search for T3 in Canada doesn't even bring up a match for Terminator 3, although Wikipedia in the US lists it as an alternate name for Terminator 3. Maybe T-CUBED. Meh.

Troy Hinkley!

Love it, but will the overstaffed legal department at Warner Brothers convince Amazon to take it down? I can't imagine they would.

EDIT: I meant CBS, not Warner Brothers.

Joy is a woman's name, although a female professor would completely eliminate the IP issue.

Royal Hinkley is very good. I've toyed with it in the past.
I think it's down to Royal Hinkley, Roy Hinkleburg, or Joy Hinkley.
I'm leaning towards Hinkleburg or Hinkleburger. The latter is more in keeping with the nonsense of the book.
