Fic meme day 17

Playing catchup. Yay for LiveJournal being back!

17 – Titles – Are they the bane of your existence, or the easiest part of the fic? Also, if you do chaptered fic, do you give each chapter a title, or not?


Titles used to be the easiest thing in the world. I'd just pluck them out of thin air, slap them on (misspell them) and there we go. These days they don't come quite so easily, but they're still not too bad.

Sometimes I'll do individual chapter titles for long stories, but usually I don't bother. I might split them into parts, like the Timelord!Ianto story is being, but that's as individualised as they get.

18 – Where do you get the most inspiration for your fics (aka "bunnies") from?

I've always struggled with titles. X-Files was easier - pluck a phrase, turn it into Latin and there you go.

Lol, I like that process. Sometimes I'll put a relevant song on and steal a line from it, but that feels like cheating.
