You haven't given us much information to work with.

Now, now - I think any more information would take the fun out of it.

One of my possible titles is "All train rides must come to an end" but it's still under examination while i decided if it reveals anythign about my ending or anything that is likely to happen.

Victoria vel Nex - has a nice ring to it, it's set in Ancient Rome, the title is latin for "Victory or Death", it sounds better in latin.

 

[lady_bug99]

thought i'd let you all know that i decided against my other title and it is now "Broken Tracks"

 

[velociraptor]

I've not fully decided on mine. Heh. Well, I'm willing to sit on "Strands of Fate", only if I can't figure a superior title. And unfortunately for me, the fifth-word technique doesn't seem to mesh with my story... or my length of paragraphs.

Apologies for being the random one... but I am doing a critical analysis and I also have absolutely no idea what to call mine... Anyone know of someone doing a critical analysis and whether their titles are more creative or just to the point and boring?

 

[Ennaybur]

nope, well im going with my original one from the start. yay

 

[Mantis]

loving some of the titles you guys have chosen, "strands of fate' just makes me want to read that Short story. I ended up with Ubermensch, which is german for overman or superman...explained in my story.

Mine is set in the 50s and uses an Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong song as the title to reference the era

'dream a little dream of me'

 

[emo-kid-91]

"fireflies and black velvet" - small letters and all. i know, i know. how e.e cummings of me.

 

[lucidassembly]

God Moving Over the Face of the Waters

It's one of the only things about my piece that I don't despise

SKALA

Alternate language is the way to go

 

[Hysterik]

Mine was 'One Thousand Faces'. I hate my title. It's after the Joseph Campbell book "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" on the Hero's Journey.

Wow, awesome! me too (obviously lol) what was your story about?

 

[emo-kid-91]

Wow, awesome! me too (obviously lol) what was your story about?

haha - the "call to adventure" stage, the very first part of the journey. sci-fi, set in approx 2070, where a newly-created breed of human has taken over the earth and driven everyone else into hiding. the "call" received is made to the main character in order to get the ball rolling on bringing the humans back out "into the sun" so to speak, because the created humans ("night creatures") aren't actually all that bad.

you?

 

[Hysterik]

Sounds great! I can't wait til people start uploading their works.

Mine is a bit more literal... It's about a guy working in a lost and found office who creates a world around him self. I have three parts corresponding to the Hero's Journey (Down the Rabbit Hole, The Yellow Brick Road and Belly of the Whale) and at the start of each he imagines a character on the Hero's Journey, at a certain stage of it. Then his personal journey is another mirror of the journey itself, its all very layered, lol.
