How do you come up with a title for your upcoming book? For instance, do you know what your title is going be before you write a book? Or do you, like myself, come up with a title after you've written most or all of your book?
Speaking of titles, as I'm nearing the end of my fourth novel and first rough draft. I'm writing down titles as they come into my head. That's what I did when I came up with Family Secrets 'Secrets and Second Chances Book 1'. I knew I wanted to do a series of books all based on different stories, but having the characters be related in some shape or form. And they all had to have some secret and possibly a second chance at something. I also like for the title to be mentioned somewhere in the story, as we all do. Though, I think that's a must when you're writing a book. Wouldn't make sense if the title had nothing to do with the book, right? If you'd like to leave a comment about how you come up with a title, I'd like to hear what you have to say. Quote of the week! I've never been a very prolific person, so when creativity flows, it flows. I find myself scribbling on little notepads and pieces of loose paper, which results in a very small portion of my writings to ever show up in true form.
