I was going to save the title picking for when either A: it just came to me or B: the book sort of came up with it's own title or C: someone who I had read and edit the book suggested a title. BUT, I obtained yet another How-To book and I'm ATTEMPTING to follow the steps. One of the first steps is to pick a title. My guess is I'll wind up changing it eventually, but in the meantime it will do. Has anyone else had a problem picking a title? Do the tells PLEASE! I'd like to know I'm not the only one with this issue.
Welcome to the place where I rant, rave and discuss books, writing, the town of Cobourg Ontario and anything else that strikes my fancy.

Picking the Title
Who woulda thunk picking a title for a novel would be so brain bruising? Pain I tell you, actual pain! I mulled, sorted, read, studied, mulled some more only to come up with a basically plain title for my novel. I wanted something extraordinary, I settled for "it will do".
