One of my MCs lives on Mulberry Street in Manhattan... my novel title idea is 'Mulberry Drive'.

I had a stellar title idea for the novel I decided NOT to write this Nano. I have absolutely no idea what the novel I AM writing will be called, but I'm sure it will come to me. I won't rush it - Names are important, and it needs to be a name that feels right.
I find that naming my works can be the hardest part of writing, I don't know why it's so difficult. Probably because I'm too picky.

This hit me while I was outlining. I sometimes trust my instincts.

Determining a title first helps me in the writing. That way it's not in the back of my mind to distract me.

I find that my title often comes out of my only great line in the novel haha. So I since I have no real idea what I'm writing about this year, there's no WAY I can come up with a title yet. I'm planning on coming to the write-in this evening, though I'm not sure what for since I've got nothing to start outlining with. I don't even know if I believe in outlines!! oh goodness, this will be a crazy month.

Another working title came to me on the road today. It's a bit long, but I'll try it on for size: Mulberry Street Penny Dreadful.

(Maybe Penny Dreadful alone?)
