Too long. A book title should be short and exciting.

Depends on the book. My first story has an eight-word title, but folks seem to like it!

As for David's "suggestion," what about Stare as the Devil Tumbles? Might work as an ongoing collective novel, assuming we each add bits whenever someone checks this thread.

A month since the survey closed and over 500 posts later. Is this a contest record?

Bob Newhart (Bob Hartley) wakes up and sits up in bed. He turns to his wife, Emily and shakes her awake. "Emily, you'll never believe the dream I just had! I was on the MobileRead forums, entered in a contest to win an iPad. I thought it was real, but I guess it was just a dream!"


(5 points for anyone who knows what I'm referring to. It's been many years since I've seen the show so I'm sure I've got everything wrong here, but it seemed to fit. )

"The Last Newhart," of course. Classic, on so many levels!

Alright, you get the 5 points! I was hoping I didn't destroy it so much it was unrecognizable, but I figured at least getting the names right would help.

Dallas, after Bobby had been dead for a year. It really ticked the fans off, and is considered a classic episode in the exact opposite sense that the Newhart finale was. The Dallas--Bobby's in the shower--the last season was all a dream episode was laughable. Well, so was the Newhart finale, but it was suppose to be.
