Probably have your project done by now -- I had some computer problems as have been off-line for a while.
Mounted towel bars on ceramic tile some time back. Used masking tape to mark where I wanted to drill, then took an awl and tapped that to maybe get a slight depression. Started off with the smallest bit I had and applied light pressure to the drill to get a hole started. (Seemed like nothing was happening for the longest time.) Got a depression started, increased the bit size by two, enlarged the depression some (another 5-10 minutes of drilling), increased the bit size again until I got to the size hole I needed.
