It appears as though I will be doing Agency.

Honestly, it is the smartest route for me to go. It means that I will get paid much more than just a regular aide at a facility, which will also mean that I can work less days a week. Agency, right now, tends to pay CNAs 30+ dollars an hour. On top of that, the aide gets to choose at which facilities s/he wants to work.

I will shortly be receiving the information I need to get started.

I did a similar thing as a contract bookkeeper and worked for a while through an agency. I was considered "salaried personnel" so even if there was a gap between assignments I got paid by the agency. I worked some really good gigs through them and learned a lot. There was one assignment that was awful but the overall experience was positive. I have been gone two years and still get job matches emailed to me.

Been working on writing a new novel, mainly in my head for the time being.

I only had chapter one written. Recently, I've added a Prologue and begun chapter two.

I’m curious, because I have no talent and very little experience when it comes to writing fiction:

Do you come up with a title and then write a story to fit it, or write the story first and then come up with an appropriate title?

Personally, I rarely have a working title when I begin writing. Like the novel I'm working on now, no idea what the title will be.

Cool beans. I know of writers who take both approaches. In fact, Poe was criticized for writing his stories to fit titles he already came up with.
