TEMPLETON or ?

For quite some time I've been writing a lengthy story. This particular WIP will hopefully become a novel instead of a novella which I've written & had gotten published. See previous post.

So far this story has gone thru 3 titles.

1 - Bay City Vampires

2 - Renegade Vampire

3 - Templeton


Originally I had wanted to use title 1, which is the name of a gay vampire motorcycle gang, but as the idea progressed I realized they were only a minor part of the story. The gang's story purpose is to help their leader who is main character, to track a renegade vampire who is on a killing spree.

Therefore, the title became # 2.

And then I thought about deleting the gang, but now I'm reconsidering.

As you can see above, title 3.  Of course, after all this time in thinking about which title to use, I might resort back to the original.

Oh, well.

For the past couple of weeks I've been taking a novel writing class. Writing The Break Out Novel by Donald Maass is the text along with his work book. I have that book. Can't get the work book till next month. Sigh.

Since the class has already gone thru week 1 I'll post the lesson along with the teacher's comment. A lot of student commented that they also like what I wrote.
