One of my daydreaming enjoyments is thinking up new titles and plot lines. I don't do anything with most of them, but they are good additions to my idea folder. You never know when a title can inspire you to write something that will take off for you. Even though I don't read lots of YA fiction, leaning rather toward lit for the younger ages, I particularly love the trends in contemporary YA titles.
How about you? How do you come up with a plot? Do you think of a title that inspires you, or do you agonize over a title after you've written your story?
Would a rose by any name smell as sweet?
Current Titles in my brain:
ReplyDeleteBeth and the Talking Chicken
Twins Twice Two
The Amazing MacKinneys Take Flight
Three Dogs Too Many
Water Balloons and Rubber Bands - or, What's in a Knoerr?
Boys Who Love Baseball, and the Dads Who Cheer
Are you serious? Do I get to be in a story? Woo hoo! The last one has to be about Christine's boys in baseball.
