Here walks Ollie Di Fiore. Master of his feelings, expert detacher, only mostly devastated.
My first drafts are often very similar to the final version. This line is one example that has stayed exactly as I initially wrote it. I was about eighty pages into writing the book (word document pages!) when my agent told me we were going to try to sell this novel on proposal (A.K.A, without completing the full manuscript). At that stage it didn’t have a name, so I rapidly scanned through the pages I’d written, and landed on the last part of this line as a working title—I thought it captured the overall mood of the book pretty well! As you can tell, the working title became the official title, and the rest is history.
