What We Did to Ask Your Opinion

Please note that I am aware that most of you have not read this book, so you are not being asked to comment on whether the title works well for the specific book I've written. (Although if you have read it, feel free to e-mail me with opinions on how the title worked for you.)

[Poll #1294645]

Also, if you ran across a book called What We Did to Save the Kingdom, what, if any, preconceptions would you have about it? (Funny, serious, high fantasy, swashbuckling, sword-wielding protagonist, lots of boats, whatever.)

You may well be right on the pieces there.

The title is of the necklace, but necklace stories don't have to have the same titles as their necklaces.

Oh, I've got one. How about _A Kingdom Saved: Priceless_.

Just having a bit of fun here on a Monday morning. :-)

See, it writes its own blurb!
