The other factors are story length (Stella is from the longest tale, Idy the second, I believe &mdash; Paul is not a main character in the longest, but he is as big or bigger than Kaimana, who is the protagonist of her shorter story.) and third-person versus first. There are two main characters in &ldquo;Salvage&rdquo;, that longest story, but I can&rsquo;t see the other&rsquo;s name at all, because she is doing the telling.</p> <p>Amount of dialogue figures in as well. And I have a few main characters without names!</p> Felicity http://faerye.net http://faerye.net/post/my-thesis-as-a-cloud#comment-2432 Aha 2009-01-03T20:51:38+00:00 2009-01-03T20:51:38+00:00 <p>Aha, of course character names would appear frequently in fiction. That makes sense. I wonder: do the relative sizes of the name correspond with whether these are major or minor characters?</p> Robert http://www.robertpeake.com/
