Hi
just a quick question.
....Take a picture with a suitable title that is also a title of a book. In honor of National Novel Writing Month....
Is *any* booktitle allowed, or only the ones who feature on the website (national novel writing month) , which are previous winners?
Thanks fro clarification
regards
Gaby

Any book, methinks. I don't see a stipulation saying it has to be a NaNoWriMo book...

Ha, National Novel Writing Month is November, seems like this challenge is a bit late.

Just a bit of procrastination... very novel-writer-ish.

Haha, yeah. I recommended this back in November. *giggles* I'm glad they finally got around to it though. =)

i already used Heart of Darkness, in french no less, its a novella I believe, not a novel.
It will be interesting to see if people go "book cover" with this book title challenge.

As long as people title their entry accordingly, I will research every entry's book and give full, out of the box consideration when voting.
It's practically a sin how very deeply I adore literature.

So children's books count as well, ie: smaller books, or do they have to be novels? What is the consensus?

Wondering though if works of fiction will be favoured over non-....I just read a staggering book that you would swear was fiction but was indeed true. I'd love to do it.

First thought - can't figure how to do
Second thought - missing elements
Third thought - 2 attempts.....*Sigh*
And I thought third time is the charm:-( Back to the drawing board:-(
Oh well, good luck to all who enter!:-)Message edited by author 2012-01-21 21:04:28.

I have a photo that suits a title. It has little connection to the story though. What do you think?

Yes for sure ,my entry is the same. It is a Booktitle challenge.

I have a shot, a title, but I think there is a better title out there. Is anyone willing to look at my pic and wrestle out a title for me?

Shoot me a PM with thumb Ken and I'll see if I can help. Maybe my book club and literary major experience might be able to conjure up something for you.Message edited by author 2012-01-22 19:32:56.
