Questions...

Fri Nov 6, 2009, 2:21 AM
...about naming stories and if you have thoughts about this I wish you would answer.

First of all, what do you think about naming a fanfic/story after a song/taking the name from the song, even if it wasn't a songfic? Let's say that the song inspired you so much that you find it's name very fitting to the story. I think this is kind of lame, because in most cases the name doesn't fit the story so well. This depends on the case, but what do you think?

Secondly, what do you think about naming the story with another language than the language it is written with? I have one APH-fic that I have named in Russian, even though it is written in English. I am working on this Nazislash-story in Finnish, and I have been pondering about the name. I have gained inspiration from so many songs that are sung in English that when I have been thinking about the name I have too many times thought about the name in English. I do have a few names in Finnish too, and they are song names, and they are such song names that if I use any of them I would have to give the reader some of the lyrics of the song, the most fitting parts, in the beginning of the story.

I DON'T KNOW. I can't express myself so well with this shitty keyboard we have on our school computers.

The lady Starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck!

A young girl interested in history, music, movies, literature, philosophy and politics. Loves to write hell of a lot different kinds of stuff from poetry to Nazislash just because writing is very close to her heart.

I grew up quick and I felt the kick of life upon the stage.

It ain't no mystery if it's politics or history - the thing you got to know is: everything is showbiz!
