Stutter.

My work-in-progress novel (nothing to do with my thesis, but where my mind happens to be at right now) is in a bit of stutter.  I'm agonizing over the terminology of my magic people.  I've always called them 'mages', but my editors think that's too prozaic.  I guess it is, but I've been calling them that for so long that I'm okay with it. 
I've been suggested rune-speaker (meh), and I'm considering rishi... I love the Vedic influence but in this context it might not work.  It might mean changing lots of other things...

Work... in... progress...

sigh.
