    Is three sources in one paragraph overkill?

    Perhaps. You could be in danger of writing a paragraph that is simply too long to support a single topic sentence. On the other hand, if it's a short paragraph, you could be in danger of overwhelming your own argument with other people's words. On the other hand, it might work great. Trust your instincts.

    Writing is, after all, an art form.
