《How to write a book》Coming up with a title
Advertisement
By now you're probably very excited to get started on your actual writing. You've already done a lot of research, and what you have this far, is kind of like a blueprint. In this step we're going to name that blueprint.
An important thing to keep in mind while choosing a title for your book or story is that it has to grab the attention of potential readers. It doesn't matter if your story ends up in a bookstore or on the Internet. It's always one out of many, and the title should be raising questions that the potential reader would like to have answers to. The title will decide a big part of how popular your story or book will be.
Things to keep in mind while choosing a title:
1. It's best to choose a title that doesn't already belong to another popular book.
2. Don't give away the plot in your title, just give subtle hints.
3. People like rhythms and rhymes in your title.
You'll probably have the best result if you come up with several titles and let someone else decide which one he would read if it were a book.

Or maybe meet up with cute characters and make friends. A not quite dungeon management story with cute skeletons, demon lords, and angst the protagonist is desperately trying to ignore. A typical not-so-typical isekai story. ------------------------------------------------------- For Ao3: This work is / has been cross-posted to Ao3 under the name ReignOfTheIceWitch.

Midori
The sea of stars. The momentaneous lifeforms that flicker far away. Our futures — a sea brimming with light. Each and every shimmer in the starry canvas serves as one’s infinite opportunities in the vast sea of the future. The world, however, is far from the ideals of such a mantra. Complacency is the enemy of progress, yet to the four known nations, each one sees enemies around their borders. An example: A village isolated from the nation of Alkai prevents the lives of many from progressing. It’ll take a society, a group, even a whipped together rag-tag team to jump start the quest for progress. An escape from a motionless home—in order to search for a greater future, Mira approaches her blade in a new light. Any illustrations I use for covers and chapters are illustrations I have drawn myself unless otherwise stated.
