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.)

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.)

Maybe. It sounds like a "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" sort of sense of humor about itself. And what would I expect it to be like... hmm... sort of a cross between Hitchhikers and "With a Single Spell" by Lawrence Watt Evans.

It does sound slightly YA to me... but I don't see anything wrong with YA. Some of my favorite books are YA, and I think anything with a sense of humour tends to be kinda slid toward that direction anyway (as in, I think a funny book has to try harder to be a grownup).
