If you were to write a novel, what would the title be?

Answer 1

Well, It wouldn't be a novel but a collection of short, amusing and at times, sorry stories, called, " Things I heard while taking the public transit" I have no car right now, and man, the stories you hear, then you get the ones on their cell phones, uncaringly sharing their lives, Wow,

Answer 2

Yeah, as many people kind of already pointed out to you, you can't title a book before you write it. Especially because even when you know what you're writing about, your story can take turns and become something else entirely; it could be so different that it needs a different title. Besides, I think that when you title something when you first start writing it or before you start writing it, it feels like an unnecessary guideline. A very constricting sort of path. I guess. I don't know. Nobody's going to have a real answer for you. Sorry.

Answer 3

Ignore what they say. You can title a book before you name it. in fact, it helps me keep direction on where the book is going. Here's some names for novels I'd like to write someday.

Through a Glass Starkly
My Sane Asylum
Falling Awake
Random Artichokes

Answer 4

i would make the title something rather loosely connected to the title. like, if the story had an ending that showed 2 lovers reunited in the rain, u could name the story something like "Rain" or "Reunition in the Rain". or, u can choose a title that actually names something in the story. an example would be like, if in a story, a child finds a letter that changes her life, u could name it "the letter". or u could use a name, like a main character's name or a name of an object that influences the story.

Answer 5

I beg to differ (as always). If you know what the book's gonna be about, of course you can know the title. I've started a book called Organised Chaos and it's about my mentally handicapped son. However, I'm still on page one and need a bit of inspiration ...

Answer 6

Logic Less Ordinary
Shotgun Theology

Answer 7

I wrote one when I was a teenager, which, as the main characters were an American and a Brit, I called "U.S.-U.K." until someone pointed out it sounded like an insult.

It became "The Youth, The Quest, and The Maiden." and was never accepted.

Re-reading it years later I wasn't surprised.

Answer 8

I AM writing one...my working title...
"I Feel More Like I Do Now..Than I Did When I Got Here"...
Yep...you read that right...
Sounds like a page turner, eh?
LOL!

Answer 9

I like books with strange titles, something that only gives a clue of the main story on the book... but if it was about my life... it would be: "Design is Life"

Answer 10

You don't write the title of a novel PRIOR to writing the novel, thus this question is moot.
