Test Your Title Here

Sep 27, 2008 12:28


Ran across this fun little title tester at Lulu.com.

Unfortunately my title THE WITCHES OF GEE'S BEND only earned a 10.2% chance of being a bestseller.  But then, when I typed in "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone," it generated a similar (14.6%) response.  Guess there's some things that just can't be predicted.

How does YOUR title hold up?

This was fun! My title has a 20.1% chance (and I'm holding Lulu to that)!

I got 26%. But Harper wants me to change the title!

No idea! I came up with something I liked but it's so ridiculously long. I'm going to keep thinking as I do my edits and hopefully something pops out at me.

That is so cool! And was hard to fill out for me! My title, The Forest of Hands and Teeth, has a 41.4% chance.

Thanks for the link!! Off to play with more titles...

With a "the" at the beginning (which I'm constantly forgetting to add), the title of my current story got a 10% chance, without it there's apparently a 45% chance. Weird.

Yes, I noticed a starting "the" seemed to hurt scores! Interesting.... Good luck with the big fight scene. :)
