"Thicker Than Water"

- a reference to blood, quite a bit of which is shed in the story

"9 Parts Water" - mine's about death and the afterlife, loved one's reaching back to comfort the bereaved. NOT as depressing as it sounds :). My name reflects it structurally and the reoccuring motif etc etc


Good luck everyone! not long to go...

I have called mine "Plagued by Discovery"

And let it me say it was a huge relief to hand it in, i turned around to my teacher and said once it was entirely finished i just wanted to throw it in the rubbish

"Walls"

Plain and simple. It relates irritatingly to my Major Work and I really can't be arsed thinking of anything else without sounding lame.

Heh, mines about the afterlife too.....

It's called Heavenly Little Dark. This is because my protagonist's name is Celeste Moreaux, and Celeste means "heavenly" and Moreaux means "little dark". It reflects the main idea which is of an imperfect afterlife etc etc...

I was about to call mine Walls, well it's on a list of many things I might pick from at the last minute if I'm gutsy enough to change this late. But then I thought perhaps Walling would be better.

Getting to the actual point of my post, I often wonder, d'you reckon they get a lot of MWs with the same name come through every year? What kind of names would be likely to get repeated?

I think they do, depending on the simplicity of the words involved. Besides, according to my bogan of an EE2 teacher: "It is whack. It all depends on how intimately your title relates to your story."

I called mine: Reflections.

I know its not great or anything or very original. But it was originally called The Debacle. Changed that. Thankgod. Its about a town with a development and theres four characters who have their own opinions. Oh yerrrrrrrrrrr
