Ran a few potential titles for upcoming stories through. My best score was 10.2%.

Confirming my suspicion: I suck at titles.

If I did it right then my Title: "Altar of the Sun" (for NaNo this year) has a 63.7% chance at being a bestselling title.

A title I came up with a few yrs back "Yuri" has a 45.6% chance of being a bestselling title.
So either I did it wrong or I am slowly improving my chances. lol.

I did two tries with the same title and got different results. The first time I only added the title and left the other options unchanged; I got 10.2%. The second time I used the same title but changed the other options as well, and I got 63.7%.

I got 26.5% for 'The Travellers to Nirvana'. Maybe that means it will sell a bit?

I put in this title:

"Thin Beans: An Indie Novel of Momentous Import"

The result was 10.2%


I then put in this other title:

"Thin Socks, Spaghetti Spots, and Worn Drapes: My Great Indie Novel About Curtains and Love" by Hiram 'Hilton' Homer Hampton, III.

The result on that one was the same.

Oh, well. I guess I better not write those two novels.

I got over 76% for my title "Smooth Strokes from a Clean Razor," which I took off a can of shaving cream.
I'm good at titles.
Wish I had the ambition to write more than just the title more often.

It was very good idea that this little program-let has no AUTHOR FIELD, because some people were given very unfortunate names by very insensitive parents....names so bad, in fact, that no one in his or her right mind would want to use it.

I'm thinking of any unfortunate member here who has the name of "I.P. Freely."
