Hey Shelly,

I rarely change the names of characters, although I probably should more
often. Names are very important, and can help define your character (JK
Rowling picked fantastic names, for instance). Me, I usually just go with
the first thing that pops into my head.

OK guys here is my first Writers question to the current list. So I am about
to self publish a novel and I want to know something. I don't want to know
if I should do this or not because I've pretty much decided I'm changing the
name of my protagonist. We've gone through to name changes and now after
rewriting the book and thinking about it I've decided that I'm choosing a
third name. So, how many times do you change the name of your characters
