Not the cover, alas. A picture of Cinderella.
Matthew and Liza’s story not only has a publication date, it has a title. It’s almost like it’s a real book or something crazy like that.
His Forgotten Fiancée, coming soon to a retailer near you.
By soon, I mean January. Which is going to give me time to finish editing Geoff and Lia’s story and hopefully write another story that I have simmering.
Looking for a title for a story? I was asked to provide a list of different titles for my story about Matthew and Liza. Google kindly pointed me toward some romance novel title generators:
Western Romance Title Generator
Or this one, which came up with the catchy title, “The Greek Tycoon’s One-Night Plan for Tax Purposes.” I think that one’s my favorite.
If you need more than a title, you might try this one, which has generators for titles, plots, character flaws, and a horde of other novel elements.
While random generators might help spark the creative process, what works best is to find a title that expresses what is unique about this particular story. Finding the right title is not like playing a roulette wheel, more like picking a snowflake out of a blizzard.
Writing World has a useful article on finding the right title for your novel.

My story about Matthew and Liza needed some revising, and then more revising. And then some tweaking. And then re-tweaking. This is not a bad thing. Trust me when I say it needed the work. I am grateful that I had a kind editor who could point out the things that needed to be tweaked and revised.
Now it has a publication date. It should be coming out in January. This gives the production staff the time they need to work their magic on it.
But first, they need me to do more work. I need to think up some exciting titles that will tell the reader at a glance how fabulous, dazzling, and covered-in-glitter-amazing my story is. Or at least titles that will give them a hint what the story is about and rouse their curiosity so they have to click the link to see what it’s about.
I must really have sold a book. It didn’t seem quite real before today, but there’s something very convincing about having a signed contract and a signed check show up in my mailbox.
