Sploda Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 @DarklinkThe fact that you think you are awesome makes you less awesome than you think you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake the Sage Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I think I shall join because, after all, I am planning on writting books (^^) Username: Jake the SageFavorite Book(s)/Book(s) Currently Reading: Anything that catches my interest and I can't finish in an hour. [spoiler=Writing Example:]Prologue-The world is full of wonders and mysteries. Civilizations come and goes, each leaving something behind for future generations. The gods of ancient Greece, like many old gods, have left behind mortal beings for which their pure blood still courses through their veins. However, in a time long forgotten, something is amiss as evil spreads like a plague. Now the descendants must aid their parents or calamity and strife will become the norm. Chapter 1- The sun rises as yet another day begins in the modern world. The sunlight breaks through the curtains and a single beam of light lands on a sleeping girl’s face. The warmth of the sun makes her stir and she gets up stretching, her mouth open wide in a gaping yawn. Cali nervously walks towards “Burking Academy for the Gifted Youth.” Her foster parents had fought long and hard to get her into this boarding school, so like it or not Cali would have to make the best of it. Cali had been orphaned when she was just a baby, both her parent’s dying in a freak car accident. She was eventually adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Cunningham and moved to Greece about a year ago. Now being an orphan isn’t what makes Cali noticeable, it is her appearance that draws the eyes of anybody passing her. She has incredibly fair skin, almost to the point that she looks like a living porcelain doll. Her hair was also an odd color, as she dyed it in a light silver tone which caused her brown eyes to stand out greatly. As she walked through the masses of students and other pedestrians her cold feet began to get worse with each progressing step. While attempting to get the courage up to finally head into the main building a voice calls out from the crowd. Shaken out of her nervousness Cali looks around and spots the one who had called her name. Even though Cali was new to the area doesn’t mean she didn’t have time to meet a few people. And it was one of those new friends that had called her name. “Hey Cody, do you go to the same school?” Cody had bright reddish orange hair and a light tan, making his hair look even brighter than it naturally does. He smiled when he finally wedged his way through the onslaught of campus goers. “Yup, but I’m not sure if I’m going to be in any of your classes so you might have to live without me,” Cali lowered her face and gave a playful smile as if she was saddened by the news. Cody was one of those few people that no matter who he met they seemed to warm up to him quickly, “Oh! Did you hear the latest news going around!? It seems that you aren’t the newest kid in school anymore.” Cali’s eyes widened with the prospect of not being known as the new person on campus anymore. To be honest the idea of being the new person always bugged her for some reason, although she could never explain it. “So what’s his name?” “His name is,” Cody scratched the back of his head as he pitifully tried to remember what the new persons name was. Unfortunately the biggest flaw Cody had was he had a terrible memory and it took him awhile to retain some things, “Well I can't remember. You know how I am with those kinds of things Cal.” “Its okay Cody, after all it did take you four weeks to remember my first name.” Cali and Cody both smiled at the joke as they walked through the giant glass front doors to the boarding school.

Twig Posted March 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Discuss chapter names and how it affects the reader. I love the Percy Jackson series for having hilarious chapter titles. It makes the reader want to read more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kira Magister Magi Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 The Incarnations series has normal title names. Like "Luna" will intro Luna, and things like that. I guess I just enjoy content too much to care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I think I am in the same boat Kira. I don't seem to care about the titles. The content is what I care about . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twig Posted March 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Making up names can be hard. Many books don't even have chapter names. Edit: Well yeah, the content matters a lot, too. I'll agree with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 My favorites, save Lord of the Flies, don't have Chapter Names. LOTF has ones that forewarn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Oh! I'd like to have that as chapter titles! Ones that forewarn . . . And yeah most don't have titles any more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akumakagemaru Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Sorry for interrupting for a second here' date=' I just wanted to ask if I should post a link to the summary I'm going to be posting for a fanfiction here? I can't make the first chapter yet, since I'm sort ont ime, but I'll make the summary. It's Naruto based on the Count of Monte Christo, which I just rewatched.[/quote'] Sure. Thanks. Shogun of Onimori {Working title; any suggestions welcome) Please tell me if its' any good, as a summary. I plan on writing Chapter 1 tomorrow, if I can get on.Mine are usually dull. And I hardly use them ^^' I try to make Chapter names that are relevant to the story, or fitting a theme; for example, in my first fanfic the theme is a single word to describe the overall or final content of the chapter. Another one I wrote I tried to focus on humor, it's a Watchmen/Naruto crossover, so imade the first chapter "Is there a Doctor in the house?"
