Esosa Daniel-Oniko asked Josephine Strand:

Just bought Misty Dreams and looking forward to reading it! What goes into a title for you? Do they come easily? Or do you agonize over them for ages?

Josephine Strand That’s a great question, Esosa! I do agonize over titles. I don’t believe a story should be written around a title or around the idea for a title just because it sounds catchy. I wanted my book’s title to be relevant to the story in a profound way. I settled on the final title for Misty Dreams after the last draft was complete. As you will discover, it has more than one meaning and incorporates a key element of the story. I hope you enjoy the book!
