So I decided to actually write this book (description below is copy and pasted from the “Plots for Sale” topic in this forum). I am terrified but ready to do it. It will be my first novel! I even signed up for a 26 week writing course that takes you through the steps. 
So this is Week One and the very first assignment is to pitch your novel’s idea to the group, which requires me to have a working title. EEEK!
Based off the description below, PLEASE give me some suggestions for some working titles… I’m open to anything…
“Setting is mountains of NW [name_u]Montana[/name_u] or Northern Idaho, Maybe even SE British [name_f]Columbia[/name_f]. MC (female in her 40’s?? I’ll call her [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] for lack of another name) works summers living in a [name_u]Fire[/name_u] Lookout (look it up, kind of a cool gig) near a quirky very small town (think Northern Exposure). She is a loner and recluse type, remotely interacting with the eccentric residents of the town on a limited basis, but keeps everyone at arms length and her past is a noticeable mystery. An obvious tragedy in her past haunts her and others get the impression that she is running from something, or hiding. Other characters: a stray dog keeps showing up at her lookout and she keeps returning it to its owner (cranky older lady - 80’s?? - who runs the nearby horse ranch… loosely based off real life [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] [name_u]Wade[/name_u]). The two women become friends, and the dog eventually “chooses” [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] and [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] gives her to her. A male love interest: handsome divorcee who is [name_u]Jodie[/name_u]’s supervisor at the [name_u]Forest[/name_u] Service, he is assigned to basically check in on [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] and take care of her needs. He is starting to have feelings for her but she is closed off. One day an outsider shows up in the town looking for [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] (but calling her by a different name). Turns out it is her ex brother in law. He is trying to find [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] to tell her about her now 18 year old daughter - whom he adopted with his wife many years ago - is legally trying to get info to find her mother. Eventually the tragedy is revealed, [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] was happily married with a 3 year old girl (the one now 18 and trying to find her) and a newborn daughter. They were all driving home one day and wrecked and the car went into a lake - [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] manages to get loose and as the car is filling with water she has to choose who to save. She chooses the 3 year old daughter and they swim to safety and her husband and newborn daughter tragically drown right in front of her eyes. [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] is wracked with guilt and unable to confront life and one day just walks away from her daughter abandons her and starts a new life and new identity- The daughter is then adopted by her husband’s brother and his wife who raise her as her own - and nobody has heard from [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] since she walked out of the hospital The rest of the story is a coming to terms with tragedy story and a mother connecting with her adult daughter. The daughter moves to the town, there is some kind of fire drama/ a turning point in the story/ perhaps a death or near death. [name_u]Jodie[/name_u] has to choose between the forest service love interest and the brother-in-law (whose own wife passed away several years ago from cancer and he raised the daughter as a single dad) who she is drawn to bc of history, their shared love of the daughter and the fact that he looks and acts like her deceased husband. Themes of abandonment, accountability, overcoming tragedy, friends, the healing elements of solitude and nature, eccentric characters and quirky towns, familial bonds and of course the complicated love between mothers and daughters.”
