I'm up to over 57,000 words, and this story still doesn't have a title. I mean, other than "Operation Way Too Much Plot", or sometimes - depending on how I'm feeling at the moment - "This #$%^&*(*&^ Story".

So I'm resorting to quoteland.com for inspiration, and a few of these are giving me fic-related feels, although they're not really adaptable for titles.

"Lost love is still love." - Mitch Albom

"God gave us memories that we might have roses in December." - John M. Barrie (I know I've seen Roses in December used as a fic title multiple times.)

"You cannot love a thing without wanting to fight for it." - G.K. Chesterton

"I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity." - Edgar Allan Poe

"I can only wait for the final amnesia, the one that can erase an entire life." - Luis Bunuel (Goosebumps!)

"Words pay no debts." - Will Shakespeare

"Everyone you meet is your mirror." - Ken Keys

"I think it is all a matter of love: the more you love a memory, the stronger and stranger it is." - Vladimir Nabokov

"He disliked emotion, not because he felt lightly, but because he felt deeply." - John Buchan

I really like the idea of Stronger and Stranger as a title, not knowing necessarily what your story is about, of course. It just appeals to something in me.

I think there are a lot of good phrases in there that would make really good titles. When you look at any of them, do they scream STOP at you? Because then you'd know you were at least on the right track.

I do love quotes. I have notebooks and notebooks full of them. I don't know why. I just like to collect them!

STOP GIVING ME PRE-EMPTIVE FIC FEELS.

Without having any idea what your story is about (and I can't wait to read it), I love 'Words pay no debts.'
