A book (and its author) has done their job if the words within change your life.

I wish titles would pop up for me! 😀

M.B. Henry @mbhenry1985.bsky.social · 9d

Yeah they're rough for sure!

M.B. Henry @mbhenry1985.bsky.social · 10d

I would probably get attached too if I could even come up with one in the first place 😆😆

M.B. Henry @mbhenry1985.bsky.social · 10d

Yes! Exactly! It's so hard!

M.B. Henry @mbhenry1985.bsky.social · 10d

Any other writers struggle with titles?

Or is it just me who can't be so deliciously pithy and witty?
