How to Meet and Date Firefighters.



Okay so I am well into my new book and have been considering titles for it since is a “How To” book. Because I am targeting a female market I wanted to ask a favor of my female readers. I am going to offer a list of potential titles and ask you to select the one you feel would best fit the book.

A little background on the book, last April I wrote a series of posts about how to meet and date a firefighter. There were a total of five posts that ranged in titles from Secrets to Dating a Firefighter, to Top 10 Tips on Dating a Firefighter.

Well in nearly a year these posts continue to be the most viewed and commented on posts for my blog. I get many questions from women that are presently in a relationship with a Fireman, and want some pointers, have been in a relationship with a Fireman or want to know more on how to catch one of these apparently illusive creatures.

So the book is a practical guide or how to book for meeting, dating and maybe even marrying one of the boys in blue. I am going to offer a selection of titles and am asking my female (or male) friends to place their favorite or even suggested title change in the comments. So thanks ahead of time.

That's pretty funny, actually! I'm an old lady and so not really looking for anybody, but I would say that all your titles are too long. "How to Meet and Date a Firefighter" as the subtitle, but the title ought to be short and punchy, like "Hot Stuff! How to Meet ... " Or "Keep on Truckin'! How to ... " I wouldn't necessarily use either of those, but you get the point.

Hey Lorinda, you are not an old lady! You are a gift.
Most of the titles are short, I should have changed the font size on everything after the Colon so you would know they are subtitles. Thanks for playing.

I like the first title without the "How To" there. But creatively speaking I would go with "Smokin!" and subtitle it "A Guide to Dating Firefighters". You know-- have the book cover "Smoking" be in a smoky font or something. LOL.

I wish you much success in publishing your book!

Cheers, Jenn
