Okay, it’s REALLY bugging me that I don’t have a good title for my next novel. I’ve been thinking, though, and here are a few of the ones I’ve come up with:
Chasing Home
Exile’s End
Worlds Away
Worlds Apart from Home
Where I Am
Fallen
Fallen from Home
Fallen in the Wilderness
I’m not totally sure, but I kind of like the one word title Fallen. It sums up so many different elements of the story: Jalil’s fall to the surface of Gaia Nova, where he was raised by the nomads; the fallen-ness and moral decay of the cities and domes through which Jalil passes; Mira’s fall from innocence; etc, etc.
Fallen…I kind of like it. Unless I come across a better title (or unless all my trusted first readers object), I’m going to run with this one.
Aaand…it’s 11:30 already. Dang. One whole day, and all the progress I’ve made is one word. Oh well–at least it’s a very important word. =P
Out of those in the list I like “Worlds Away From Home” (not apart). It has a nice ring to it, and can have a dramatic cover. ;]
