Which title do you like better?

Hi,

Back to the OP. First, I doubt that short stories are the way to create a buzz for your work. They generally sell much more poorly than novels.

As to your titles I don't like "The Power Of - etc." It just doesn't sound catchy to me, though I do like the idea of having a series with related titles, and power being the central feature of those titles. If I was going to go that route I'd probably alter it a little to something that sounds slightly odd. Something with a hook. So Maybe - A Power of Mages, A Power of Sorcerors etc.

As to GRRM, I only read the first book in the series. I found it too dark for my taste. Well written, and interesting characters, but in places simply too horrible. The tv series however, that's been edited a long way and I think it improved for that.

Cheers, Greg.

 

Well guys what do you think about this title - HALF STOLEN SCROLL? That's the story I am working on.

 

Your title is intriguing, Chandrapal. I would want to know how a scroll could be "half stolen". Or is it half a scroll that's stolen?

 

That's all I can say.

 

The Half Scroll ! well that's really good suggestion. I too think the word 'stolen' will reveal some plot of the story.

 

Isn't one of Martin's books named A Clash of Kings? I'd probably go with Abuse of Power in that case.
