I need a title!
 
I need a title for a 10,000 word story about zombie Abe Lincolns. Winner gets a free PDF of Murderland part 1:h8 or Archelon Ranch. I have already thought of Abepocalypse! and Stove Pipe Massacre, so those are out.

I was gonna go with something like zero, except:

Four sores and seven corpses ago...

Newb is leading this one, I think. Especially since my recent favorite of my ideas Remancipator sounds cool but is a bit of a stretch.

Personally I like Newb's the best, but I'll throw a couple out there for the hell of it.

Rise of the Rail Splitter
The Great Masticator

If my first one is too "wordy"....how about "DEADYSBURG".

It's probably not copyrighted but I've seen it used before. I like your original one better.

Doc Faustus 11-07-2009 06:16 AM

The publisher liked Remancipator best, but Newb, give me an email address, because I did like your title enough to pitch it.

That's not bad but Newb's is more original. Not only is Remancipator a play on another title but it refers to the person creating the creatures in that flick/book.

Doc Faustus 11-07-2009 06:46 AM

I agree, although the story is kinda more about the young necromancer who causes the zombie problem.

Ah, well then, I guess it works more than I thought. ;)

Love Newbs one. Don't know enough about American history to make a good one. All I could think of was "Our Zombified Cousin."

Don't you have to pay him to use that? He even has the date he came up with it, and evidence that it was not you ;)

thanks darling....I don't often expose my genius for fear of the government tracking me down and wanting to "tap into" my big brain.

Oh yeh. :D

Doc Faustus 11-08-2009 07:19 AM

Also, I regret that I will not be using it outright. I'm going to add it somewhere in the story and possibly as part of promotional materials should it be reprinted as part of a book of three novelettes like I might do if the story turns out both good and popular enough.
