Direction in the title
 
For this prompt, we’re looking for any book with direction in the title. As with all our title-related prompts, this may be included in the main title, subtitle, or series title.

  • Direction can be cardinal direction (points on a compass: North, South, East, West.)
  • Direction may also be positional. Positional words describe the location of something in relation to something else. Examples of positional direction words could include: Up, Down, Right, Left, Forward, Front, Back, Backward, Behind, Straight, Ahead, Far, In, On, Above, Below, etc.
  • You could also choose a title with the word “direction” in the title, subtitle, or series title.
  • An additional interpretation for this prompt would be to choose a title that is an imperative sentence. (A title that doubles as a command or direction to do something.) For example: “Go Set a Watchman,” “Don’t Let Her Stay,” “Do Not Become Alarmed,” etc. In this case, the entire title is a direction (or command).
Any directional word in the title will count for this prompt, and the word can be in any language.

As a creative interpretation, you may choose a word that has another direction word inside of it. For example, a title word the word “Beast” (contains the word “east” inside.) Other examples include, but aren’t limited to, the words: feast, Easter, awestruck, narrowest, unorthodox, touchdown, downtown, porcupine, frontier, cleft, fright, etc.
