Thomas Sowell - one of my favorite commentators - born in 1930

"Thomas Sowell was born in North Carolina and grew up in Harlem. As with many others in his neighborhood, Thomas Sowell left home early and did not finish high school. The next few years were difficult ones, but eventually he joined the Marine Corps and became a photographer in the Korean War. After leaving the service, Thomas Sowell entered Harvard University, worked a part-time job as a photographer and studied the science that would become his passion and profession: economics."

Day 17 - Titles - Are they the bane of your existence, or the easiest part of the fic? Also, if you do chaptered fics, do you give each chapter a title, or not?

In most cases, titles don't bother me. Something about the fic usually suggests a title. On a few occasions, I've gotten outside help just because nothing resonated. What worries me more is that sometimes my titles don't make sense to other people and they may get turned off instead of reading the story.
