It Has a Name
I’ve been struggling with a name for this project. The codename for the project, “Godflower”, was fully unsatisfactory–something a 3rd grader might name a short story, but it’s not really a good name for a story. After realizing that this was starting to piss me off, I decided to go with…
Dämmerschlaf
What the heck is that? It’s a real German word, meaning literally “twilight sleep”. I created a brainstorm list, and my favorites on the list were Götterdämmerung and Ragnarok, but I didn’t want to go with either of them. After some google-fu and some German-English-German action, I stumbled across this twilight sleep, which nicely fits in with my concept for this short.
Now all I have to do is somehow magically complete this project without losing motivation.
