I never get the title at the same time as the story idea. If I'm lucky, I'll get an idea for the title at the same time as the story idea, but never the actual title -- e.g., I'll think "the title should reference Gilbert and Sullivan somehow," but that's it. Usually though I have no title at all, not even an idea for one, and I don't come up with it until I'm finished with the fic. It makes for some interesting file names before I change them! For example, I recently wrote a drabble that is still sitting in my fiction folder as "He tried to look casual as he rejoined them.doc." And "Turn Again" still has files named various versions of "tls" (for "Turn Left story") from before I named it.

Oh, I definitely have weird file names! But that's mostly because my titles are often too long/weird to be a file name. The only difference is that what you;re describing actually makes some sort of sense... my earliest fanfic file names used to be things like "moo". THATS how creative I am 0_0

Wow, TWO people who want to read it! Okay, I'll definitely have to work on it this weekend, then. : ) No need to keep it in your favorites waiting for the update, though, because I will be shouting the news from the rooftops when I finally post the next chapter!

YAY! *is happy*
Oh it's sitting there in the favourites from when you started writing it, I just never took it out because I was hoping it would be updated.. one day... soon...:D
