What’s in a title!

When I started reading the book “Chick Soup for the soul, woman to woman”, I was expecting some stories that would give me a definition and purpose of reading that book.


But I was motivated even with the title of some of the stories owned by people. Then I recollected all the books and write ups that I have read and the ones I wrote too, to understand how much a title gives a reader.

A very attractive title pulls the reader to read the contents barring the length of it. It creates inquisitiveness in her to know how the title takes you along the passage…

The power of a title can be realized in blogs and such short stories piled together to make a reader read it!

Some titles which made me read were -

A touch of kindness, Taste of failure, Farewell to the queen of hearts ….

How a title is interpreted depends on the reader, the puzzle in it on what could the title say…

A writer on the other end can interpret her title and provide a meaning to it with her own words.

Indeed, writing is beautiful as much as the title given to it!
