Here from [livejournal.com profile] daily_snitch.

I envy and admire a good title. Choosing a title (at least for me) tends to be like bumping into things in the dark. Until I hit on it, I never really know. "Snape's first day of teaching" became "Reactions" when [livejournal.com profile] scifantasy pointed out that reactions were the driving force of the story. I had a story that went through "Werewolves of London", "Bitter Flesh", "Inevitable", and finally went back to "Bitter Flesh" when I realized I was never going to think of anything better. "Bloodline", on the other hand, had the only title it could possibly have before I wrote one word.

Either it happens or it doesn't, but I would rather see a stupid title than no title at all. Suffer like me, damnit! ;)
