Hearts of Fire.
Hmmmm.
I was thinking recently that I wanted a new title for this book.
Hearts of Fire? Sounds like it could be a cheap romance novel. None of that, please!
I asked my husband Steve to help me.
"I need something that captures the spirit, the essence, of UConn polo," I said.
"Mmm hmm," said Steve.
"I need the title to feature the same letter, like Grit and Guts, or Bravery and something that starts with a 'B'," I said. "I am at a loss here. What do you think?"
Two seconds pass, then---
"How about Dust and Determination?"
Time screeches to a halt and my jaw hits the ground.
"That's it," I said, awestruck at my husband's quick response and utter brilliance.
"Sleep on it," Steve advised.
So I did.
And the new title of this book is....drum roll....
Dust and Determination: A History of UConn Polo.
AND GUESS WHAT ELSE?
The first draft is done.
DONE.
Shooting for a 2016 completion! ONWARD!
