Yup so Crystal and Lacy are sending back their thoughts on ‘my book’ and I’m pleased. Crystal had a great response to ‘my book’ and so did Lacy from what she’s seen so far. Now… I just need a freaking title for ‘my book’. I’m usually the title queen. But throughout this entire story nothing popped into my head. Nada. Not one single title idea. I brainstormed with some of The Novelty Girls tonight, but I’m not sure it’s what I’m looking for.
Here’s my blurb for the EC Caveman entry:
Mason’s a squad leader in the Army and not used to being disobeyed–or being rejected by women. But Abby Cook has turned him down flat for the past month. But then he gets into the position to get everything he wants.
Caught in the act of executing a revenge prank, Abby finds herself making a deal with Mason Tyler–a military man, the last type of guy she wants to fall for. But can she get through the weekend of sex on Mason’s terms without losing her heart?
And here’s my potential titles…
Rules of Conduct
Conduct Unbecoming
Abby’s Trade
Breaking the Rules
Trust or Dare (just pulled that one outta my booty, but it could work)
What do you guys think? Any ideas? Any of these stand out to you?
Oh so yeah. On that whole Ellora’s Cave note… I’m gonna cry! My editor appointment at Nationals got cancelled. I was supposed to meet with Shannon Combs from Ellora’s Cave and it ain’t happening… she and another editor aren’t going anymore. I don’t know what happened, but I’m seriously bumming. I was hoping to pitch (okay, that’s a lie, I hate pitching, but I know it’s my big shot) So I’m TRYING to squeeze into an appointment with either Raelene Gorlinsky at EC or Audrey LaFehr from Kensington Books. But with only a week out…sigh…I bet I’m grabbing ankles on this one. Ah well. The bright side is I don’t have to write a pitch now :)
Ok, off to bed. But first a pic of the day! Kind of along the whole men doing dangerous work theme….. This is so the kind of thing I’d do.
Trust or Dare sounds interesting and so does Conduct Unbecoming.
I forgot to mention The Pirate’s Booty. Please enter me in your contest.
I like Rules of Conduct. That one struck me immediately – especially if there’s going to be a little bondage involved? Oohh…[sorry, lost concentration there for a minute] I would definitely go with some type of military phrase.
I’m here for the Pirate’s Booty! Rules of Conduct sounds good.
I like Rules of Conduct!!!
That sucks that your editor appt got canceled. I sent you a pm, so maybe that will help (I had a proposition).
I like Rules of Conduct or Conduct Unbecoming. Those are my favorite. :)
Um, there are always a few agent appts cancelled and there’s usually a big board at Nationals to check on them so look into that, too. You might get an appt after all, though then that means you have to pitch. EEEEEEK! :)
Everything he Wants
Unfound Riches
Illusive Treasures/Riches
All that Glitters (is not gold)
Any good?
:o)
Arg matey……..give me yer Pirate’s Booty!! Hope your doing well.
HI SHELLY! MY WIFE AND I LOVE YOUR BOOKS! OH, BY THE WAY, PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR PIRATE’S BOOTY! LOL.
I’d love some “Pirate’s Booty.”
I think I missed something with everyone wanting your Pirate’s Booty?? LOL
I love Rules of Conduct
I like Abby’s Trade for a title or how about Mason’s Mission. I also like Trust or Dare.
Oh, and I’d love some “Pirate’s Booty”, too. Say that fast three times. haha!
Pirate’s Booty, I love that name congrats
Liz
Conduct Unbecoming or Rules of Contact are good. How about Rules of Engagement since you’re looking for something military?
Wow! I just drew a blank too. LOL. I hope you find a great title. I’m back and jeez am I glad to be home.
btw, new website for both Jennifer McKenzie and Jennifer Leeland. Check them out, cause they’ve got your banners on them. Crystal totally rocks.
I haven’t had a chance to spend my GC. I’ll get on it tonight.
Can’t wait for Rules of Conduct! And gimme some pirate’s booty ;)
I like Rules of Engagement too as well as Everything He Wants.
I immediately liked Rules of Conduct — Altho, Rules of Engagement work for me too. :)
I like Conduct Unbecoming, but then what do I know. I am title challenged *g*
Rules of conduct immediately struck me, I also think Breaking the rules could fit well with your book theme…
Sorry to hear about the editor cancelling.. I think something will turn out for you though.. this is the year of Michelle! You are doing so great this year, I’m sure nationals will have a wonderful impact on you as well.
Rules of Conduct jumped out at me immediately…If I saw this blurb and the title, I would buy the book a.s.a.p! Sorry to hear bout the cancellation! Had a few minutes in between finishing getting ready and leaving for the service so I thought I’d drop a line…Talk to ya tonight!
