That's funny about the title making you not like working on the project. I was the same way with my last project. I've put it to the side for a while until I can come up with a title that doesn't make me cringe every time I see it on the Word doc.

I'm also struggling with writing my current WIP, I put in maybe a few hundred words over the last week. Mainly I don't know where I'm going with the story, so when I sit down to write I have no idea what I should be talking about. I don't like for my stories to wander (which they do when I write without knowing the plot), so I've been trying to daydream stuff instead. Blah.

I find its good to allow it to stew a while. Lately, I've been pondering all this deep POV stuff, so I've been reading various authors and just taking it real slow. Learning not to be in a rush- as I reflect on knowing more input will be coming in- regardless...

I like the title you came up with. It evokes some good book cover images. I'm sure 'it will all come to you' - in time:)

Good luck with your novel Stephanie, and congrats with what you've written- so far!

Have a wonderful holiday season!

Ugh! I haven't written since last Wed... 600 is great compared to that! Good luck coming up with a title. Can I help somehow? I do love that part. I know I'm going to have to add desc, too, cause I'm really conversation heavy (but I kind of prefer that to desc heavy...), but I'm already at 50k and I'm only a little over halfway through the story. Ah well. 80k isn't too bad. That's hopefully where I'll end up.
