Dear Brian,
I noticed that there is now a book on the subject
of the A or Alpha text (AT).
It is "The end of the Alpha Text of Esther:
Translation and Narrative Technique in MT 8:1-17, 
LXX 8:1-17, and AT 7:14-41.
It is by Kristin de Troyer, and published by Scholars Press.
I haven't read it, but she seems to cover the same material
I cover in my article.
Best,
Liz
