title trivia

having trouble deciding on a title? rather than sit for hours trying to figure one out, just write. write your story and if you still cant figure one out, DONT STRESS! re-read your story and then think of the BEST title based on your WHOLE story.

Excellent advice! The best titles normally come from within the work itself.
Don't stress over not having one when you start. Just write and maybe somewhere along the way, or when rereading the finished piece, the title will jump out at you.


Welcome to the forums Horses! Glad to see that you hit the ground running! It is always great to have members that are willing to share their gathered tid-bits of wisdom. Hope you enjoy your stay!

It took me forever to think of the title for my first novel, but i'm happy with it. Titles always give me problems, good advice.

That's what I do. When I write my stories usually I'll find the title as I write along. Maybe just a word or phrase, or an overall theme will just pop-out at me.
