I'm currently struggling with naming my PhD collection which won't be out in the world (if it ever is) until at least 2026. I posted on Facebook the other day about the ideas I had for a title and was given responses to them as well as some alternative ideas. A few people said it was too soon to name it, but I want to make it real in my head, make it a thing. I know when I find my title that I'll get that feeling inside that tells me it's the right one and perhaps I haven't written the poem yet that will name the collection whether it's from a line or the actual title of a poem. Thanks, Kim, this is all stuff to think about.
That makes me want to write a pamphlet just so I can birth it via the magic of naming it, I love & totally get that. Twenty poems. hmmm. I hope the buttery glow has prevailed.

Interesting, certainly something to think about. Enjoyed reading this.
