What We Did to Ask Your Opinion

[mrissa]

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.)

Ignorance never stopped me before

You should totally use both of those titles for something at some point.

How about 101 Ways to Barbeque Dragons? No? Trebuchets for the Single Princess? Let's Go: Purgatory? Archibald Angles and the Uncomplimentary Teacup?

This is fun. Useless, but fun. :)

We used to do this with classic SF titles. The Stars in My Pocket Like Balls of Lint. A Scanner Drunkenly. Like that.

My HS friends and I just added 'bacon' to titles. The Moon is a Harsh Bacon, Foundation and Bacon....

We also did the reverse with books like The Robots of Madison County and Robots in the Attic.
