Happy Friday All!

We're going with more of a creative support group theme for this week's ATTF, talking about titles and summaries.

When do you decide on the title for a fic? Do you usually know at the start and build the fic around the title, or are you the kind of person who scrambles to find one after the fic is complete? How do you chose your titles or get inspiration for them? Capitals or lower case? What’s your favourite title that you’ve come up with?

What about other people’s titles, are there any that you especially like or that grabbed your attention? Are there any film, book etc titles that got you interested?

Summaries - how do you write them? Do you try to sum up the whole fic, or the general vibe? 'To quote or not to quote' something from the fic itself?

And not to leave out our artists and other creative types, how do you name your art/vid/fanmixes/creations? Do you caption it, or let it speak for itself?

Bonus: if you'd like to play, comment with ASK ME and a link to where people can find your creative works. People will then reply with one of your titles or summaries. Reply with where that title/summary idea came from, why you chose it, and your thinky thoughts!


Go here to suggest ideas for future ATTFs or sign up to host.

Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
4) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)
