Now I know why: It fits a couple of your why-it-works guidelines.<br /><br />I'm bookmarking this page and plan to refer to it next time I'm naming a book!

I find thinking of titles really hard!<br /><br />Another thing to do, when you think you have the perfect title, is search for it, on the internet and Amazon, and check that it doesn't have any double meanings you want to avoid, or 20 other books by the same name.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05651744055513494283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1939271308870333669.post-13325575435524268042013-05-15T09:01:50.317-07:002013-05-15T09:01:50.317-07:00Thanks Mac!

Coming up with the perfect title is difficult. Here's hoping you'll be able to use it for another one of your stories down the Karen Woodwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497346859460691324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1939271308870333669.post-64189162607698478812013-05-15T08:58:17.132-07:002013-05-15T08:58:17.132-07:00ED great tip!ED great tip!Karen Woodwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497346859460691324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1939271308870333669.post-45669140997539647512013-05-14T06:10:27.115-07:002013-05-14T06:10:27.115-07:00

The whole story started off because of a title I thought up (it sounded cool) -- but the story ended up having almost nothing to do with the title now that it's nearly finished! So, I have to come up with a new one. Thanks for these tips. They shall be helpful!V.

I had the perfect title for my novel and had been querying with it, and then a best-selling author in the same genre used it for one of her new books. Now I'll probably have to change mine to avoid confusion. I definitely suggest that when you have the perfect title, search to see who else may be using it.E.D.
