Excerpt

From Choosing Your Story Title:

Your title should convey the overall message of the story.

An example would be if your story is about a crime taking place in an apple orchard. So, you title your book The Apple Orchard. Then you might have the front cover showing something happening in an orchard, or something related to the crime. Otherwise, a bland title like The Apple Orchard could represent anything from a romance to a UFO abduction under the apple trees. The title and cover of this book must work together.

An example of this type of title is Joseph Wambaugh’s The Onion Field. His cover is a very dark field with telephone poles and gorgeous sky in the distance. Not knowing the crime behind The Onion Field, you would have no idea what the story might be about. Wambaugh is just lucky enough to be a bestselling author so people know him and what type of stories he writes, but most of us are not yet bestselling authors.

We need more help to attract readers.



Professional Reviews

I Whole-Heartedly Recommend....
When it comes to an expert writing about writing, Mary Deal, editor and award-winning author of several suspense novels, has extensive knowledge about the craft. Fortunately for the rest of us, she’s willing to share her expertise., which includes demystifying the mysteries of how to get your writing published. I whole-heartedly recommend her resourceful guides, Write It Right – Tips for Authors, for authors serious about their work and the craft of writing in general.
