Okay, so I'm trying to write a story about a bisexual vampire seductress who cannot get the handsome prince into her clutches due to a bad back she sustained while falling from the ceiling in her sleep. It's coming along well so far (1120 words) but I'm damned if I can come up with a name for it.
It seems to me that on a word-for-word basis, coming up with a good story title is the most cussedly stubborn and difficult part of the whole goddam compositional process. Am I right, or is it just me?
So far I've got 'Lumbago in Limbo', 'Sciatica Sucks', 'Lucella takes a Fall', and all fucking combinations of the above. Nothing seems quite right.
If any writers out there have any ideas about how to approach this niggling problem then please, please, PLEASE let me know - how do you yourselves come up with good titles?
Thanks for any help!
