@Hope it’s a sister thing. π

May 29, 2016 at 2:21 pm #13496Okay. Good. But I’ll try and be more careful not to do potentially confusing rush-posts. π
May 29, 2016 at 4:27 pm #13505And @bluejay, I donβt mean it as any disparagement to you or your mom that I donβt care for the title Recklessβ¦Iβm sure you understand?
@emma-flournoy Of course. π- This reply was modified 8 years, 5 months ago by BlueJay.

June 2, 2016 at 12:03 pm #13658Wow, I’m gone for one week, and I come back to 6 pages of discussion! SIX PAGES, people!!! π
In all seriousness, I really like Reckless and Uncharted, @kate-flournoy. I think I like Uncharted a little better. I don’t know; it just sounds cool. π
@Emma-flournoy and @Kate-flournoy *in British accent* Your…exchanges have been most entertaining.
@kate-flournoy I have three younger sisters, so I can definitely relate. πJune 2, 2016 at 12:46 pm #13661@gretald heehee… π Thanks for the votes. I’m still wavering on the fence, actually. :/ I’ll figure it out one of these days.
June 2, 2016 at 3:04 pm #13674Hey guys @Daeus @Hope @Jadamae @Gretald @Bluejay @Emma-Flournoy @anyone-else-who-was-on-this-topic, what do you think of the title ‘The Way Not Taken’? I know, I know, it’s not one word, but I kinda like it just the same. I’d forgotten about it until today, when a friend brought it up in a letter that I’d been considering that as a title. What do you think?
June 2, 2016 at 3:16 pm #13675@kate-flournoy This is my answer. http://www.poetryfoundation.org/resources/learning/core-poems/detail/44272
That and I like Reckless.

June 2, 2016 at 3:26 pm #13676@Daeus AAAAAAUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! I HATE IT WHEN THAT HAPPENS!!!!! *pounds head against wall, squeezes eyes shut and growls in frustration* I can’t believe I didn’t think of that. I can’t believe I didn’t recognize the cadence and realize it wasn’t an original idea. Urrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhh…
*sigh* Thanks for pointing it out.
June 2, 2016 at 3:32 pm #13677Uum, I’d generally recommend keeping yourself in one piece, @Kate-flournoy.
You’ll get a good title eventually.

June 2, 2016 at 3:35 pm #13678*smiles bleakly* Good advice @Daeus. I guess I will.
And I have begun to despair of that. :/ If one title fits in one regard it almost certainly won’t in another; that or it sounds off, or is too dry, or too melodramatic…
Oh well. I guess I’ll just have to keep trying. *brave, watery smile*

June 2, 2016 at 3:37 pm #13680Think of it as your hero’s journey. The theme is patience.

June 2, 2016 at 7:15 pm #13682What, was that a reference to the Robert Frost poem? π Uh-oh.
