Comments on: Word Lust http://daisywhitney.com/blog/word-lust/ By day, I am a producer, on-air correspondent, podcaster and raconteur in the new media business. By night, I write novels for teens and am the author of The Mockingbirds, to be published by Little, Brown in November 2010.

I love them in other people's, but idk, I have a hard time figuring out how to structure mine. SGA is the only one I'm really pleased with so far! Although, CUTB was just numbers so it's not fair to hold that against it.

It's like a little suprise every chapter...wondering, imagining, picturing what that chapter might contain based on the title. Love them. I'm pretty good at chapter titles. Novel titles, however, I'm not so good at. They're too much pressure! I love, love chatper titles.

I have always loved chapters with names. I've never understood why all authors don't do it. It adds so much to the story. LOL Great post! I have always loved chapters with names.

I also titled my chapters in my debut, Like Mandarin. But as a reader, I've discovered I tend to ignore them. I'll assume it happens when I'm too invested in the story itself to pause. LOL.

I have chapter titles in Paranormalcy, too. First of my five novels I'd done it, but I just couldn't resist. When, when, when can I be introduced to your sultry little chapters, too? I can't wait ; ) Oh, you make me laugh. I have chapter titles in Paranormalcy, too. First of my five novels I’d done it, but I just couldn’t resist.
