My first and so far only book went out with a title entirely of the publisher’s choice. I thought my working title was much cooler and punchier and all, but the publisher was the person who signed the advance check and not unreasonably that gave him the near-unilateral right to name the baby. My guess is that you have to have a solid sales track record before you get to have much of an opinion in what goes on the cover of the final product. No-one should look askance at you for the title of your first book!

Very much looking forward to reading it. The Amazon reviews should be a thing of beauty, too…

I have learned a hell of a lot from the other writers in the Fatosphere, after all.

Excellent point.

This is how I interpreted the title when it was initially proposed as well – I have learned a hell of a lot from the other writers in the Fatosphere, after all.

If it’s “Lessons from the Fatosphere”, and not “I, Fatosphere”, I think you’re okay.

Ha! And we have totally studied the Way of the Wobble.

If it’s “Lessons from the Fatosphere”, and not “I, Fatosphere”, I think you’re okay.
I read it that you’d traveled to the Temple of Fat and there studied the Way of the Wobble.
So if anything, I thought it a rather modest title.
