Titling your work 8/22/2019 6:14:38 PM
I simply find it easier to let my thoughts and ink flow in sequence, then I read and re-read, until a suitable title pops up in my head. See, if you are like me, then you will agree that titling your work is not the easiest part of this business.
As a matter of fact, after the laborious year long process of writing my autobiography and gathering documents and photos for my autobiography, then sitting down with my editors to sort them out, I realised that I really did not have a title yet.
Then one evening sitting quietly on the beach re-reading the completely edited galley and whala, it occured to me like a dream - Just call it: "Me, Myself and I."
Needless to say, my editors did not have any qualms with this title, thus my first novela was 'born' in the year of our Lord 2004.
I am curious how my fellow authors arrive at their many fancy titles!
