Specific nouns and actionable verbs which are more specific. Both will make your title sharper and more creative. Look at your favorite titles from your list and pick a few that really stand out to you. Now see where you can get more specific. Toy around with replacing generic nouns like “boy” “girl” “town”, etc. with specific ones. What is the name of the boy, girl, or town? Can you replace a word with a more specific one that provides further details? Take for example “The Scarlet Letter”. The use of “scarlet” is much more interesting than simply “red”. “The Red Letter” sounds fine, but by getting more specific with what shade of red, you add a finer point of detail that makes your title stand out. Sometimes long titles are extremely intriguing and inventive. However, it can be harder to have a good book title if it is longer. “The Hundred-Year-Old Man who Climbed out of the Window and Disappeared” is a long title that works because it manages to be a story in itself without divulging the story of the book very much. On the other end of the spectrum, “Dracula” is one word that tells you everything you need to know.  The length of your title is subjective, but aiming for a shorter book title may be easier to do. A more traditional, and often successful strategy is to use two or three word titles in an “adjective + noun” or “noun + of + noun” formula. Titles like “Game of Thrones”, “Lord of the Flies”, and “My Sister’s Keeper” use this strategy. Additionally, think about searchability for your book if you are publishing it, especially online. You not only want your title to be memorable, but you want it to be easy to type into a search on both a computer and mobile device. Nonfiction and more academic works can get away with having a longer title due to the nature of the book’s contents. “The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money” needs to be longer to adequately describe all of the contents held within. Play with contrasts, moods, and vivid language. A great book, and title make readers think about what the title truly means. The title has one meaning before someone has read the book, and another after, when that reader has gained the knowledge and insight from within the pages.  Going back to “The Great Gatsby”; once you know the story, the title gains another meaning. Gatsby, to the outside world, is a great and mysterious individual. After reading the book, “great” takes on a new meaning. There’s an irony and contrast in the title. Gatsby isn’t truly a great man. Gatsby has risen to the status of greatness through dishonest means. Gatsby’s life is a sham, and the only thing “great” about the man is the story people tell. A third meaning to the title comes from Gatsby’s most redeemable character motivation, love. While Gatsby has lied, and is pretending to be someone else, the character acts out of love for Daisy. In this way, Gatsby is “great”.  Not only does the title “The Great Gatsby” tell you who a main character is, what the book is about, and provide multiple meanings, but it is also succinct. When writing your title, try to incorporate as many of these elements as you can. Once you have a title you like, step away from it for a while and ask others for an outside opinion. Another perspective may be just what you need to perfect your title.  Give people a quick synopses of your story and ask for feedback on your title. Ask these people if the title is intriguing. Does it make sense? Is it too short or too long? After you step away from your title for a while, you can go back to it with fresh eyes. Read over your work again and compare it to your title. You may find you have thought of something else in the meantime.

As soon as you notice the signs of anger, take several deep breaths in and out. Draw the breath slowly into your nose, and then gradually release the breath from your mouth. It may help to count: 4 counts in, hold for 7 counts, and 8 counts out. As you  breathe, imagine that each new breath brings a sense of calm, while each exhalation carries away the anger and tension. It can help to work your way through your body and notice where you're holding tension. Progressive muscle relaxation is an effective technique for bringing awareness to tension and relieving it. Take a seat in a comfortable chair. Starting at your ankles, contract the muscles for a few seconds, noticing how the tension feels. Then, relax the muscles in your ankles and notice how that feels. Move up to the next group of muscles until you've covered your entire body. Yoga nidra is a mindful practice in which you follow a set of verbal instructions to become increasingly aware of your inner world. Yoga nidra can help alleviate anger, anxiety, and depression. Look online to find classes near you or videos and apps with free, guided yoga nidra sessions. Sometimes, the best way to deal with anger is by expressing it under the right conditions. Try throwing a basketball against a brick wall or taking a few swings at a punching bag to release anger. You might also see if there are “anger rooms” in your area. Such rooms offer safe spaces for you to let out anger by throwing or breaking something.
