Well. I'm stuck.

I'm writing a novel, kind of a prequel to a novel I've already written.

They're both about Z-Day and the apocalypse with zombies, but this one has different characters in the same universe, just kind of explaining how some of the characters came to be and how the virus originated, ANYWAY.

I can't think of a title.

I want it to be one word, and I want it to be catchy. Like, Stephen King's "Jaunt," or (ohdearlorddon'thurtme) Stephanie Meyer's "Twilight"

Both really simple and to the point.

Can anyone give me any suggestions as to what would be dark and bleak, but not too depressing and 'imsoemooo.'

And if this is in the wrong forum, please do tell kthx. x3

I'm not very good with titles but suggestions: Play around with a thesaurus + look up the definitions Refrence ancient gods from different cultures such as Erebus the Greek personification of darkness and shadow. There's plenty of culutures to look at which involve death and darkness.

Hope that helps.

Outbreak?

That was the first thing that came to mind.

The first thing that came to my mind was: Tainted

-whacks mind-

It always works best if you involve a bit of the plot into the title (At least for me anyway) but when I read over your post, the first thing that came to mind was "tainted medicine" so if the virus was spread by injections or other medicinal properties, "Tainted medicine."

BTW, I'd love to read your book:)

Alright, thank you so much for all the ideas, guys.

It really helped, and I ultimately decided on "Outbreak," since it really is about the outbreak and whatnot... So, thanks, ricecake, since you suggested that. xD

And Aphea, when I finish it, I'll let you read. ^_^
