Hello Writer's Forum.
I'm what most would call a newbie in this area of Gaia -- I've never strayed far from the Artist side. I've made this thread for writer's in need of a name for their story. I have a handful of names I will never use, and also need a few title ideas for currently nonexistent fictions of mine.
So this is how I envision this thread to work.
1. If you have title ideas, post them if you never plan on using them.
Chances are that someone will have a use for it if you don't.
2. If you are seeking a title and find one that tickles your fancy... by all means take it!
BUT. Major but.
You must post in the thread which title(s) you are grabbing and leave at least one for someone else to take.
Throwing a thank you would be a nice gesture as well. wink
3. If you happen to find use for one of your own titles, use it! I'm not stopping you, nor should anyone else.

Three simple guidelines I would like for you to follow.
I will, however, add some rules if the threading gets out of hand.


So to open this thread, I leave these titles that I can't seem to fester into good ideas. D':

Of Burning Breath
A Heated Exchange
Mangled Methods
Chatter Choir
A Walk with Euphoria
When Footsteps Falter
Fall to your Knees
Bitter Tongues
Dream me a Defect
Bring About a Seizure
Misanthropic Melodies
Writing with Wine

Most of those sound like titles for Cowboy Bebop of Samurai Champloo episodes.

But I love "When Footsteps Falter".

Some names I'll never use:

.Start to Stop
.Bittersweet
.You, Me, and the Thing In Between
.Her Previous Engagement
.Dead to the World
.Like Water Off Of Dry Ice



I think I might use 'Of Burning Breath'... also 'A Walk with Euphoria' catches my eye. Great quirky little names :3

Really? I never would have thought, never seen either of the two.
I stick with House.

@ Sleepy
Thank you for the dropoff. =D
I'm glad I had a few eye catchers.

Neat titles, but none of my books need titles right now. I thought I'd offer some of my own anyway.

The Last Summer
Lady's Choice
Where Dragons Wander
Purification
Strange Rain
Treesong
Blood of the Winter Rose

As you can probably tell, I write mostly fantasy lol I hope someone can find a home for these.

A walk with Euphoria, very original!

Some titles one might consider:
Heels over head
A Bureaucrat scorned
Butterfly kisses
Hell simply hath no fury
 
     


Long live the rose, that rose from concrete.

Good idea for a thread and there's some really kool titles here.

- Things That Were And Never Will Be
- Diary of an Existentialist
- Kill by Numbers
- The Last Solipsist
     

Unusually dangerous, I trust you'll agree.

Hm...I really like Dream me a Defect.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it, but I'm taking it anyway! Haha!

As for titles to leave behind...

Forgive the Sacrifice
Black Fireworks
Antagonistic

Kazue-Hime

    Daybreak Instance


I misread this as "Daybreak Insurance"...will the original title still be free if I use that instead?

Oh, and as for a few unused titles of my own:

Dogstar
Overland
Behind the Mist
Adriana
Adventurers Six

*Subscribes to thread* This is a good idea. There should be one for names, to.

I don't really need a title as of yet, but I will definitely watch this thread for future use. biggrin I have a couple of titles of my own.

~Great Celestial Bodies Cause Unrest (came up with this title for a poem, but the title turned out better than the poetry! sweatdrop )
~Moon on a String

Hope some of you can put these to use! wink
