A is for April

And that title is my little April Fool's Day joke =)

It is time for the A to Z challenge!

This year I have a theme: BRAINSTORMING TITLES. 

Which comes first, the story or the title? I go both ways, usually getting a story idea, but sometimes a title can spark a story, like a prompt. For this challenge I have come up with some titles and blurbs of the stories to go with them. I encourage you to leave me an impromptu title matching the Letter of the Day, too! Here are my A titles...

AURORA – YA Fantasy. After Sleeping Beauty wakes up, Malifiscent’s daughter Malfucious wreaks vengeance on the kingdom. Aurora and Philip must go on a quest to find the talisman that will tame the evil princess.

ALWAYS AN EXCUSE – Commercial Fiction. Jake Gardenia is Peter Pan. But when he loses his money, his friends forsake him and he has to grow up and get a job, or a rich wife.

ANTI-LOVE – Women's Fiction. Julia Broziat is a successful divorce attorney who can turn a fissure of doubt into a chasm of hate before you can say compromise. Until an older couple’s determination puts a chink in her unbreakable heart.


WVDs of the Day:

aphystio – a person who has no problem bragging about their body

acclarat – someone who has to have the last word

archeri – what Cupid studies

adedab - answers to the test

abbled - tried really hard at something you know you can't do
