30.05.2025 20:37 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Ooo I like that too! But I understand the hesitation. Chiseling away at a novel takes so much energy. I'm always astounded by how exhausted I feel after.
22.05.2025 15:52 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0There's still a chance. If your other books do, you can always bring it back to the table. What was the title?
22.05.2025 15:24 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Thank you!! That's really helpful. It was from a poem I wrote that never really worked, but I always loved that one line.

Which title for my #speculative #literary #fiction #novel do you like best:
1. Lifers (current title)
2. Warmth & Color
3. Vivifica In Vivo
4. Grief Looks Good On Me
Has anyone watched The Great Mouse Detective recently? I swear, Trump saw Ratigan as an idol, and Elon as his personal Felicia.
