It’s All About the Title
[Roxane Gay / April 30th, 2009 / Young Bright Things ]The Virginia Quarterly Review has released a list of the ten most common titles they’ve seen over the past two years. Its amusing and a little sad.
As for PANK, we actually see a wide range of titles and unfortunately, there are times when we see really brilliant titles with writing that doesn’t live up to that promise.
One of the best titles we’ve ever seen was for a story we really enjoyed but had to pass on: May This Strap Restrain You.
