I like your choice of titles, they match well with the stories. Does Orenda refer to Suraj or Chakor?

I find your process for choosing the title interesting. Have you ever had difficulties in finding a title that fits the story and can be shortened to something easy to pronounce?


Which title do you like the most? (I meant title and not titles!)
It's between KISS and TOFM, so I'll choose KISS.

Would you like to participate in choosing titles with me?
I'd love to ! I don't have the creativity to come up with titles, but I can vote.

First of all thanks for the replies!
It means a lot to me!

I'm happy that you like my choices of titles!
Does Orenda refer to Suraj or Chakor?
Well according to me, it's for both in a different way.
I would say that the intensity of the word wasn't justified in the story but I tried to go a little with the meaning of Orenda!

Have you ever had difficulties in finding a title that fits the story and can be shortened to something easy to pronounce?
Interesting question!
When I think of a title for a story, I find 1 to max 5 titles, so write it down and the difficult part is to choose one among them.
Once that's done, I keep other titles in side in case it will be useful for other stories and sometimes, I get ideas seaing those titles!

So for now it was an easy task except EMI and WWW where I chose the short form before going for the full title! LOL (Crazy me!)

KISS is also one of my favorite!
Since the time I got to find Keep It Simply Sweet, me and my sisters use the long for as a code word between us and crack jokes!(Again crazy me + sisters LOL)

Let's see when the title choosing part comes to see if you are creative or not dear!
Never underestimate urself!

Thanks once again!

See you!

For me a title can either be two things
one it describes the story and secondly it maynot even refer to the story at all
it have just words in the story
a title should hold intrigue and cature readers and this is the very reason I started reading your stories
though I don't know the characters but the titles have attracted me

Thank you so much!
What you said is like I got a big reward!
I'm happy that you are here sharing your views with all of us!

Agree with you!
As I love reading, I went through a lot of books(don't ask me titles, I forget them mostly LOL), and sometimes, the story and the title has nothing to do but the title itself feels so attractive. And sometimes, we get to see the full meaning of the story in just one or few words in titles.

Thanks once again!

sorry for being late (as usual) I read your stories the moment i get the notification anytime during the day though I chew it again later leisurely but when it comes to replying sorry dear i lag behind of work...


your tiltles make me think and when I know what then I connect... I would not say all the titles tell about the story (sorry If I am on a veto poll here) (you make us think)

About the titles I like all but loved Flezhaco (it really made me think)

I join your band cannot remember the titles but when the stories catch me its stuck in my heart...

I was able to relate with the payal of yesterday with one of the story but lo i donot remember the title and also I read a story of SUKOR typical of a military type (Suraj reminded me of Rambo) again i donot remember the title...

Your works amazes me Maithu.

keep going and pardon my dementia mode its not that i donot read your stories just that work pulls me bag into late replies.

keep up your work

now its my turn...
titles are very important to and story,as they provide the very first impression of a story to the reader,in my opinion they should be kept short as possible,but very catchy,that compels the reader to go for it,the words used are needed to just drop a hint of whats its going to be...


What do I think about your stories.?
I just love them,it is sensed that work is done also in the title along with the story,each of your titles is very catchy enough to tickle my curiosity😎


are they coherent with the story and plot?
yeah,I think so...each one of your titles that you assign to the story fulfills my criteria of a good title😃


My fav?
My fav story has the best title,just tow words and it says many things,plus dont know why I just love the word,"possession"😳


would I like to suggest titles with you?
of course,but I am not good as you in titles, but may surely try and vote as well😳


BUT EMI IS STILL A MYSTERY FOR ME...😛

Hey dear!

How many time I should say no need to sorry yaar!
I can understand!
I'm also working and I can't be always there!
So no sorry next time!

I know that some of my title make myself to feel like what could they say!
And moreover it's in english, hindi and every language possible LOL

Bingo for Flechazo!

That's interesting!
I would like to know where you read the story of Sukor with military type!
I would like to give it a try!

Thanks a lot dear!
It really a pleasure to have you here and get to see what you think!

Yup dear!
How can I close the session without you LOL!

I loved the way you explained you wish for the title which matches mostly mine!

It's really a big compliment to know you feel all my titles to be catchy!
And it's good to hear that I fulfill the criteria you have fixed! ;-)

I know that the question wasn't destined for you but forgot to mention it!
I know how much you love the words Possession, Obsession, Possessive...

Trying is always a best thing buddy!
Will get to you when the title selection will happen!

And coming to your big question about EMI!
Enchanting : Chakor is Angel for him
Masquerade : The place where the important even of Sukor life took
Icon : It implies Chakor's father fighure who is an important image for Suraj!

It wasn't a phrase or something!
Just words that sticks together!

Hope you like my explanation!

See you in the next session!

Hello everyone!

This week special is Readers and Me over Crazy About You!
Yep buddies! It's week special and not week-end as I will be mostly busy during WE as it's mostly hangouts with family.
I think those who are in Insta with me saw those pics of last 2 WEs!
So no calendar for MIB for now!

Coming back to CAY!
You all liked and loved CAY!
And it was a different attempt of mine where you hated Suraj, pitied him, laughed with him... And same goes for Chakor.
It is my first story with more than 10 parts.
I know there is TTW & Orenda but CAY is the 1st story that reached 10 parts in my catalogue!

So I'm here to answer your questions or something related or not related to CAY.
Even if it's remarks, let me know.
It's your choice.

It will be more like a chat, one question, one answer.
So it's up to you all if you want to do a list of questions and remarks or one by one posts!

And if I get a question for you, I will ask you!
Thank you!


Come on guys!
Let's start the session!
