I often have trouble with titles. When I’m finishing a story, I’ll go through several titles, and the one that eventually sticks usually does so because I can’t think of anything better. I don’t know if Tomislav Jagnjic (the artist of the above piece) has trouble coming up with titles, but he sure has a knack for them. For instance, this piece is called “yo bro is it safe down there in the woods? yeah man, it’s cool.” The perfect title puts a spin on a piece that might not have otherwise been apparent, and in that Jagnijic wins. Go check out his other works, some of which are equally well titled, all of which are really nicely done and well worth your time.
All in the Title

Eileen Maksym studied philosophy at Yale and theology at Boston College, and now uses both to write science fiction. Currently she is an academic nomad, following her astrophysicist husband around the world, two kids in tow. When not writing or kid wrangling, Eileen is a hopeless fangirl. She can be found on Twitter (@eileenmaksym) squeeing over her favorite shows, most of which involve famous detectives, dashing time travelers, and creatures that are never, ever referred to as zombies.
