Okay, guys, here is a question on writing style and well as overall creativity that I’ve had for a while:
I’ve had this issue for a long while, and I’m sure some other people on Althanas have the same issue; while we are capable of writing good stories, our titles themselves really slack. Because of this I’ve named a lot of my threads after songs I like that may have similarities with the thread topic, however, I really do want to be one of those people who can make great thread titles on my own as well. I don’t know why, but I just can’t come up with attention grabbing titles that a lot of other people can. I was wondering if anybody here has any tips for us people who just can’t seem to be as creative with our titles as our stories themselves.
I have been able to come up with one or two better titles recently like with my thread “On the Concept of Hatred” (which I hope will get points for technique for applying the exact title to the posts themselves.) and “Who I Am and Who I Want to Be”; however I still feel like my skills at making good titles lack. So anyways, after writing one line and two annoying paragraphs and repeating myself constantly, here is the main question: How do I come up with a good title for any story I write?
