I'm afraid that you must not leap unwarned into this refuse of rejected titles. I kept a “title ideas” file during the writing process for Overturned, and it took a good two years before I came upon my current title. In fact, this manuscript has been dubbed “Nineveh,” “On the Ziggurat at Nineveh”, “Doom, Riddles, and the Sea Soaked Prophet”, and “Nirari and the Saw-Scaled Seer”. You will encounter much melodrama and silliness and perhaps some grammatical errors, but I swear I really was trying. This is harder than it looks.
