I need help with a title....?

Question

Im writing this story about a man who lives in a studio in new york and somehow wants to change whats going on in Iraq. He gets an idea and writes a few songs and music on his guitar. So my question was do any of you guys have a good title that i can use or get some ideas from? Something like Guitars and Politics or something along those lines

Answer 1

Answer 2

And the Beat Goes On.

Answer 3

You're better off finishing the story first; no-one here knows the intricacies and details like you do.  These suggestions will be generic and only skim the surface of what your story is really about; you could come up with something much more meaningful and unique when you've done all the description-writing, character-building and theme-exploring that writing a story involves.  Try looking at important things your characters say, or important moments or twists in the plot.

Sorry it's not the quick-fix answer you want, but it's true!  Hope you find what you're looking for.

Answer 9

Sometimes you have got to picket.

That's not quite it .

A play on words, (picket) as in protest or rally.

(pick it) as in guitar.

Answer 10

"Keep Your CDs in Iraq.". Sorry, couldn't help myself. It's not even funny, either.

"The Key" As in key to solving the situation and major/minor key in music.

Personally, I agree with one of the other answerers (or I would, if 'answerers' were a word). You can't give us enough information on this website to enable us to give you a decent title.

What's the main message of the story? What's at its heart? Think about the titles of the greatest stories and they're very often simply a major part of the story.

Don't worry about it. Often the title will reveal itself as you work on the story. Just get something down and then change it later. Your mind will work on it subconsiciously.
