Eva’s Byte #455- Catchy-as-Catchy Can

“Don’t judge a book by its cover.” (George Eliot)

What say ye?

What about pre-judging a book by its title? Admittedly, catchy titles slay me. A smattering of my favorites:

The Call of the Wild by Jack London (1903)

The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck (1939)

Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger (1951)

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee (1960)

Under the Yum Yum Tree by Marvin H. Albert (1963)

As I round the bend drafting my Contemporary work in progress, I’m sticking with the title I came up with prior to writing the prologue. It signifies the heart of my story. To the extent of my googling, there is no other book with this chosen title.

In the capacity of a writer, I’ve finished drafting chapter 48 (1885 words). I’ve begun composing chapter 49 (473 words thus far) toward the end of a journey which got off the ground in 2021.

*Regardless of the title we choose, may each of us respect our readers to discover what lurks between the lines of our written words.

My sincere appreciation to you for reading this far.
