I've come to the conclusion that I really enjoy chapter titles, not that I prefer them over just numbering the chapters. When an author selects a title that eludes to the content but doesn't give it away until the reader realizes its intent after finishing the chapter, I find that those titles enhance the chapter. Not saying they work well for all genres and/or all stories. But when they do, they do.
I've used chapter titles in two of my seven completed novels (The Famous One and Destination). I think they work in these two stories.
Do you like or dislike chapter titles – or are you apathetic to them?
Father, thank you for assisting in all you would have us do. Help us always to ask for your direction and assistance. Apart from you, we can do nothing. And what we do apart from you is worthless. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
