Random Title Creator

[Jay Aitch]

Here's a bit of fun. And perhaps something to spark ideas.

I am sat here looking an overcast sky, a uniform grey and the thought occurred to me, what sort of story could come from the word: Greyscale ...

So, just for a lark (or not) anyone else fancy jotting down some random titles that pop into being?

Am staring at a white wall and all I can think of is Blank Slate...i got nothing.

Well, slate is grey...and a blank slate is pretty uniform.

 

[Stephen Drake]

How about "Slate Grey: The Greyscale Conspiracy" with Slate Grey as a character.

 

[Jennifer Stone]

'Stone Wall: A Study in Silence'. I know it doesn't include the word 'greyscale' but it's where my mind took me.

It's where your name took you too

The Greyscale : How to enjoy a full and happy sex life in later years.

I've read it and its quite good.

The book or the sex?

ummm, think I should shut up now

 

[Jennifer Stone]

Aww I'm disappointed now Heehee

 

[Stephen Drake]

Aww I'm disappointed now Heehee

Now, Jennifer, don't embarrass the newer members.... pmsl!

 

[Jennifer Stone]

Anyway back to the situation at hand.
'Scale of Grey, Fang of Ivory' sounds more fantasy.

Inspired by the season & night skies

Crowning The Wren King

Geminid Storm

The Ermine Field


I saw a stoat a few years back, running across the road ahead. Beautiful, like all the mustelids. It was getting its winter ermine, but hadn't fully made the change and was part brown, part white

 

[Jay Aitch]

Oh Greyscale was only a first suggestion. Any random words to create story titles was the idea ...

 

[Jay Aitch]

I've read it and its quite good.

Far superior to the *ahem* "classic": Fifty shades of terrible writing.

 

[Jay Aitch]

'Stone Wall: A Study in Silence'. I know it doesn't include the word 'greyscale' but it's where my mind took me.

How would that sound as a new form of music festival?

Sometimes I jot down odd things my coworkers say, and they eventually inspire titles. For example, we used to use a graphics program called "QuarkXpress", and one day as someone was complaining about it crashing, someone else told him to "stop shouting at Quark."

The weird horror short story title it inspired became "Shouting at Quarks."

I've also always thought typography font names would make great noir detective names, as in "Benton Sans and Cooper Black, Detectives Private..."

'Benton Sans and Cooper Black; Tahoma Calling.' might make an interesting tale

Shouting at Quarks is not advisable, it could cost you a fe bars of gold pressed latinum

Random thought time... Feel free to pinch any that take your fancy, guys

Ha! I understood that reference!

 

[Stephen Drake]

Ha! I understood that reference!

Those of us who are fans of Deep Space Nine got it and loved it!

Or the rather risqué version: Benton Sans and Cooper Black, Detective's Privates

Roses in Cairo, Carnage in Rotherham?

 

[Jennifer Stone]

Any Port in a Teacup, the other side being A Storm in a Storm, which also sounds good

 

[Jay Aitch]

The Tea Storm

My personal favorite is "Is the Looking Glass Half Full?"...
