Please use different titles related to the plot. But Linda and I both vote YES to the handprint and martini glass.Rick Ochockihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05239652477437937530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973117169323556846.post-55750192386617133292010-03-03T09:25:11.365-08:002010-03-03T09:25:11.365-08:00I like the idea of tying books together.

My trilogy names are Breakthrough, Opening, and Escalation. <br /><br />Stephen TrempAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973117169323556846.post-41160654789739778692010-03-02T05:53:38.815-08:002010-03-02T05:53:38.815-08:00Good morning, Gayle.

I can certainly relate and yes, I HAVE purchased the same book twice, only to take it to our hospital's Thrift Shop, where they LOVE new books.<br /><br />You know the answer...it's not the title, but the COVER ART that counts. Sorry, but being an art major, that is what drives me to buy a book...and Freezer Burn is so darned attractive, you just have to model your new release after the last. Loved the typestyle for your name, too. Very chic!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14653562314761566743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973117169323556846.post-44935563087403194142010-03-01T14:38:18.166-08:002010-03-01T14:38:18.166-08:00I think if the stories are somehow connected, a se...I think if the stories are somehow connected, a series of similar titles make sense. However, if your stories have nothing to do with each other, I'd separate the titles... With a recurring character like Peri, as a reader, a related title would make sense and tie the brand together in my brain. But I really don't think it makes much difference, as long as you have something to distinguish the books as going together.B.

I usually end up checking the publication date. I figure if it’s a few years old, I probably read it. If it’s a recent date, I might buy it and hope for the best. I prefer books that have titles that relate to the story. <br /><br />I like your idea to include the hand and martini glass on each cover.Jane Kennedy Suttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12519340747761460017noreply@blogger.com
