Would you pick up this book? 1 Year, 1 Month ago  
Hello and thank you so much for opening this.
My name is Sydney and I am a juvenile novelist of 13 years, and strongly wanting opinions.


I am writing a book and have emitted this short paragraph for the back cover of the book, and I would like to know if you personally would want to read this book, here we go:


It was February 14 today, and everyone I knew was seeing pink and red. They were giving and receiving valentines, kissing and hugging and loving. Everything I wanted and needed right now. Not saying I would get anything if I was happily at school today. But I’m not there. I’m here, in this, this machine. I was staring at the white walls, trying to survive without any claustrophobia kicking in. They were checking for tumors. All of my happiness was not some tumor, Jacob was not a tumor.


[color=#000080]Also, does anyone have any tips on how to name a book? I need something attention grabbing. Please post
(1) If you think this back cover sounds interesting and
(2) Why or why not and
(3) How you would or did create a _title_.
Thank you times infinity.

I would think about reading this book, I liked the back cover. It sounds interesting and hooks you on the story. As for a _title_, try underlining significant phrases or think about naming the book after your main character. Sometimes I get an idea for a story before I start thinking about the _title_, sometimes I get an idea for a _title_ before I start thinking about the story. Whatever order your ideas come in, whenever you do choose the _title_... Well, the _title_'s not particularly important, just the story.

About the text:
It sounds very interesting and very mysterious. But, in my opinion (do with it whatever you like), it's a bit too mysterious. The back cover does need to inform the audience what the book is about. This piece would be the perfect beginning of a book, because it instantly hooks you and grabbes your attention. But for the back cover it's just too vague. Tell a bit more about what is going to happen without giving away the ending.

About the _title_:
I always experiment with the _title_. I always make a first page in Word and put the _title_ there. Then, as soon as I open the file, I see the _title_ and if I'm not happy with it, I change it. Until I've found the perfect _title_.

Good luck and hopefully you'll find this useful.

Provide more information for the blurb and it'll be fine. A _title_ is best to make after or during the process of writing as creating a _title_ first is only a vague. When writing, you'll get more depth to help you decide. Does this story have a meaning or moral? You can make that a _title_, but that'll only work if the story is profound enough. Find the point in the story and one or two words for it-a _title_ too long makes it seem melodramatic when it's supposed to be compelling.
