Kate Cavanaugh Writes | PREPTOBER WEEK 1 | choosing titles for my 7 potential NaNo projects & silly writing survey results! @KateCavanaugh | Uploaded October 2022 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
It's the first week of #preptober 🎃! And I want to discuss one of the best marketing tools we have for our books: the title. As someone notoriously terrible at picking titles, it seemed only fitting that I should challenge myself this NaNo and start with that first! ALSO I have some fun stats too. 👻
0:00 Week 1 of Preptober is all about TITLES (and stats on titles lolol).
1:01 How good do you feel you are at titling?? And discussing genre expectations!
2:47 I came up with 3 titles and wanted to see if my patrons could guess what the stories entailed (and also if they'd pick up the stories based on title alone).
8:40 Leave a title, take a title!!
10:41 TO THE VLOG!
16:25 Revealing the "winning" titles for my potential NaNo project and some terrible covers I made in the process bahaha.
19:49 Questions for youuu!
☟↓ QUESTIONS FOR YOU BELOOOOOW! ↓☟
D I S C U S S I O N Q U E S T I O N S :
How good do you feel you are at titling from a scale of 1 (I'm the absolute worst at picking titles for my stories) to 10 (I'm really freaking great at titling my projects)??
What do you think people would guess your story is about based on its title alone??
What's your working title for your current WIP? (And if you're doing NaNo this year, do you already have a title picked out for that project??)
Would you like to leave a title for others to potentially pick up and use?? And let me know if any of the titles mentioned in this video speak to you. :)
