Three sparse paragraphs, and yous still learn new words!

Okay, apparently there's this Southern musician called Dr. John who's been around for more than half a century. While the nature of his Zydeco/jazz fusion is of little concern to me, it does present a significant challenge to Project Euphoria since his stage name is in every way identical to the name of one of my protagonists. Worse, his stage name comes from a voodoo houngan from the 1880's, a connection I really would like to avoid for this particular character.

I must correct this immediately, but do so without changing the fact that the character is a doctor named John (I like my symbolism, SHUT UP). I'll post tonight's excerpt tomorrow (seriously, I will, it's almost done now) but right now I have to fix this.

Also, I recognize that I'm talking to myself in LiveJournal. I don't care. This is the only thing keeping me from giving up on Euphoria for being hopelessly undisciplined. Thus, I post on.
