Write a Good
Book Title and Greatly Increase the Marketability of
Your Book!
Make a good book
title using the following steps that will in
turn help you create your own cover page for
your book increasing your chances to sell your
book.
Follow these
steps to create a good book title that sells:
1. At the top of a
blank sheet of paper, write down a single
paragraph describing what your book is about.
This is the basis of your book's title.
2. Directly underneath that paragraph, write all
of the verbs used in your previous paragraph.
3. Underneath that line, write all of the nouns
used in that paragraph.
4. Now, for the next five minutes, write all of
the combinations of words you can find using all
of the nouns and verbs in the two lines below
the paragraph. Don't worry if some of the
combinations of words don't make sense.
Another way you can do this is to get your
family involved. Make it into a game to see who
can come up with the most word combinations.
5. Once the five minutes is up, review all of
the word combinations. Do you see any that would
make a good book title?
If you find a combination of words that sounds
really good together, use those words and
proceed to step 7. If none of the word
combinations look good, move on to step 6.
6. If you can't find a word combination that
makes the keywords of a good book title, set
five minutes on your stop watch and brainstorm
some more. Write down verb and noun synonyms
that correspond to the nouns and verbs you
already have. Once five minutes has elapsed, put
another five minutes on the clock and brainstorm
more word combinations using all of your new
verbs and nouns.
Once complete, review the new word combinations
to see if you have any good combinations now. If
you find one, move onto the next step. If not,
repeat this step until you find a set of words
to use in a great book title. Your best seller's
title is out there; you just need to find the
key words.
7. Now that you've found a good combination (a
verb and a noun), take about five more minutes
and brainstorm alluring phrases using the noun
and verb in that combination. If the two or
three word combinations already flow together
harmoniously, this step isn't needed. But if it
just doesn't make sense, make the two words into
a catchy phrase.
Continue with this step until you find that
perfectly attractive title that will entice
readers to buy your book.
The secret of how to write a book title is
already in your book. You just have to pull the
words out of the book and put them together.
Your book cover
and how to write a good book title work hand in
hand! Use both of these to make an awesome
cover for your fiction story.!
