What does your name and genre whisper to readers? by Olusola Sophia Anyanwu

 Does your book title whisper its genre?

Here are some books that I have read. Can you tell from the titles what genre they belong to?

 

 Sometimes, it’s very easy to tell a book’s genre from its title but not always. The blurb helps readers out. Sometimes too, the writer’s name gives away the genre.  All this got me thinking. What if a book’s title or its author knocked off interest straightaway? I steer off reading dark and sci fi writings. What of you?   I became twitter friends with Raelle who writes mainly pirate stories. I never knew the day would come when I would have a change of opinion about this writer and her writing until I read ‘Romancing a pirate’! I was truly fascinated and it earned 5 stars!!  I make a deliberate decision when I create my book title to whisper its genre. Do you as well?

Here are some names of God below.  Some might be familiar. Which is your favourite and why?

 

 

I love El Roi because I understand that whatever situation I am in, He’s got my back.   Titles / names are important. As Christian writers, we are a light to those still in the world of the flesh. Let our titles [no matter our genre preference] whisper to unsaved hearts!  We are difference makers.  Matthew 5: 14 says –

You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.

 Hope you all are enjoying the summer [not the pollen, sand flies or the heat]. Blessings!
