I figured since every other genre had a thread such as this we should too!

My current working title is "Eve's Apple." I'm not sure if its going to stay but I think it fits the story.

Right now? "How Not to Win the Girl of Your Dreams." This will possibly change, though, since I'm thinking it's kind of awkward, though really really fun to say aloud!

My current working title is "Beyond the Moonless Night". Pretty sure it's not going to stay as my title though, I'm trying to find something that works a bit better with the plot idea I have.

Polaris

It's the sequel to my last year's nano: The Star Eater.

Honestly I just chose that because so far I can't come up with anything new but I'm still crossing my fingers that I can get a new plot together before i have to do this one.

Not that I don't like (I actually love) this series it's just there are eleven other months to continues something else. There is only one month to bring new things into existence.

Just a working Title. I think as I hash out more it might change. For right now it is "Going Back",

My working title is 'Love Divine'...although this will inevitably change a hundred times or more!

I'm going with "The Immortals" as a working title... my guess is that it will be my final title as well, but we'll see.

My title is Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, although I think I'll shorten it to "The Pursuit of Happiness". It makes sense to me because it's a sort of sequel to "Rights", a story I still haven't gotten around to writing. And as you know, those three are the unalienable rights.

Hmm...right now, mine is "A Goldfish Named Spartacus"...
Don't really know what it has to do with the story, but I'm sure inspiration will strike eventually. I usually do names first, than plots. It's fun.

My title is going to be "Beautiful Disaster." I have 2 different stories going on in my head, not sure which one I'm going to write yet, but the title fits both! :)

Mine is going to be 'Under the midnight sun' - I got my hands on it from the 'Adopt a title' thread... oh yes, I am that creative. :) But so far I like it.

My More-Than-A-Working-Title-But-Not-Quite-The-Official-Title-Yet is Lucid: Happy Endings Aren’t Overrated.

It’s a spinoff of a previous series of mine wherein everyone dies after years and years of trying to beat the baddie... So I figured, the main character really does deserve the girl. I’ll make it hell for him, but he should get her eventually, hence the second half of the title.

Working-and-Probably-Official-Title: Dog Fight.

It's the prequel to my other story idea, Dog Run. Other planned stories include Dog Tired, Stray Dog, and Wolf Pack.

I have absolutely no clue!

It's the only part of the whole thing that hasn't just fallen into place - I guess I should be grateful that a title is the only tihng I'm missing and everything else is ready to go. It's still bugging me though.

Well, it started out as "I Hate 'The Little Prince'"...and was going to be sort of light and semi-humorous.

Today my little darling muse/main character Lexa latched onto a line in a song I was listening to and said that is what her story is called. So now I'm apparently writing a book called...

"No Scars To Show"

Apparently Lexa can be as mercurial as me. *headdesk*

So...I'm thinking it's going to be too angsty to be "chick lit"...not sure if I fit in here or lit fic now. AARGH!!

I've changed twice since September. At first I was going to call it "My Country-Western Life"...even after the plot changed, it fit. Then I changed it to "I Belong to the Bricks Stacked by the Fence". Now the working title (which probably won't be the final title) is "Laugh, Kookaburra, Laugh".

Thing is, my story isn't set in Australia, and the main character's name is Cooper, but nobody calls her Kookaburra that I know of. And she sure has a sense of humor...

Working Title is 'Manducant'
Most likely will change to something that pops more.

My title (or at least a working title) came to me as I was staring at a picture!

It's called "Burning Down the House"
