The one thing about the night is that I spent most of it completely obsessed with a new title. Does this happen to anybody else? Do you come up with a title first and then write a story around it? I've done this a couple of times. Rhapsody in Oil started that way, as did Beg the Liquid Red, among others. Sometimes, a specific word picks and picks at me until I find a way to incorporate it into a title; I've scribbled down a whole list of them that I have to work in, lol. That's how this new title came around, which will make
But honestly, is this just me? Or do others work like this? Do you find inspiration in a title, or get stuck on a word until a story comes from that?
