Ellen Brock | How to Use Chapter Titles in Your Novel @EllenBrock | Uploaded 6 years ago | Updated 1 hour ago
Chapter titles are totally optional, but can be useful in a few different situations. In this video I go over why and how you might use chapter titles.


SHOW NOTES


Reasons to Use Chapter Titles:

• They hook the reader with clues about what will happen next.
• They create a sense of nostalgia or an old-fashioned or traditional feel to the novel.
• They can indicate nonlinear order.


You Can Use Chapter Titles to:

• Raise mystery about what the chapter will contain.
• Keep the reader turning pages (by presenting a title they can't resist).
• Promise information the reader is already curious about.
