Hiya peeps!
It's me again, and like always, I'm in search of validation of my meager writing skills.
Or, no, wait, that's not it at all for once!
No, today, I'm in search of a much more elusive beastie -- a good story title.
I've got a couple of things I'm working on right now, with one of them being a bit of a fluff piece. You know, fun, fairly short, typical TG romance type of thing. Typical for me anyhow.
The only problem is I can't think of a good title.
Like I said, it's a fairly typical story. The main character has a male roommate she's coming out to, and hilarity/confusion/romance? ensue. Nothing epically new or twisty about the story, just a feel-good kinda piece I'm using as a palette cleanser between working on heavier pieces at the moment.
Still, a good title can make all the difference in the world. I'd much rather read a story entitled "The Epic Adventures Of Joe Somebody In The Land Of Invertebrate Elephants" than a story just called "Joe." As of right now, though, I'm thinking of just going for the character's femme name, "Bree," because I can't think of anything better just yet.
There's still plenty of time before it's finished, I just thought it'd be nice to get a little community input, ya know?

The Unexpected Non-Adventures of Bree in the Land of LaRushites?
Bree, surrounded by Morons.
Bree, fleeing from the Cretins. (No, wait, they're from Norway)
I'll get a life when it's proven and substantiated to be better than what I'm currently experiencing.

Hmmm... it's difficult to say without a more detailed synopsis but playing for the pun with the cheese and mixing in a nice gameshow joke as it may be uncertain how her roommate will react... 'Wheel of Bree'?
Or maybe a few rhyming uses of Bree?
'Let it Bree'
'The Bree to my heart'
Or just because...
'Turophobia (or how I learnt to love Bree)'
or
'Overcoming Turophobia (or how I learnt to love Bree)'
Whatever you go with, I look forward to reading the story.
