As authors we all sometimes struggle to title our stories at times and then at other times they come easily.
What are your favorite 2 story titles of your own stories and why?
Also, what are your 2 most successful story titles, either in acclaim or attracting views?
My own 2 favorite story titles are In The Land Of Salvation And Sin and The Neapolitan. Both titles came to me as I was driving and listening to music and I built my story concepts based on that. The Neapolitan is probably my most overall successful story thus far, it has over 21,000 views and I received an EP Award for it. I just felt that they were my most creative story titles.
The story title that has generated the most views for me is, My Girlfriend Shoved a Vibrator Up My Ass. Several members actually hated that title. I had one person pm me and say that she wouldn't even read it because of the title. Right now it has more views than any other of my stories at over 42,000, and earned me the Famous Story Badge. Barely behind it in views is Revenge Sex Gangbang, which I think has been 'favorited' by more people than any of my other stories.
I look forward to reading your thoughts on your own story titles.
The Devil's Undertones - one of my most popular. Earned the recommended read award. Everyone loves the Devil. Especially when he's a hot teacher. It's going to be a novella at some point.
Caught in the Net - One of my favorites though, because it initially posted with a glitch and had to be fixed which bumped it off the radar. The title has two meanings. One is a safety net which Syrah, the girl, doesn't use during her performances. It's also Net as in a surveillance sting. She's wrapped up with the law. Another novella spawn.
Devil , The couple I told what to do, and I love to tease.
What are your favorite 2 story titles of your own stories and why?
1. My first one would have to be “Confessions of a Housewife Whore”, I love the title. The story is brilliant, but I think the title just stands out so much. It kind of pulls you in, like damn, this sounds hot! It has to be interesting. So, that’s why I like that one.
2. My second choice would be “Gang Bang Barbie – New Year’s Addition”, I mean, come on? It’s wicked. I’m not one to stroke my own ego, but again the title just pulls you in. The story is defiantly worth the read. I’m quite pleased with it.
Both of these stories have done well, in my opinion. They’re at about ten thousand views each. I think that’s a good amount. I’d love for more people to read both of them. Maybe if I do them in audio? LOL

If I avoid the category we can’t talk about, because I think that category will always do well, it would have to be. (Even though I received a famous story because of said subject)
1. "I Want To Fuck My Neighbor." It’s a MILF story, and my first and only story in a male POV. It’s at about 22,431 views. I think the title helps, and I think MILF stories do well. I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out.
2. "Sucking Cock" is my second one, now it’s just a poem, but it has gotten so much attention, I’m shocked. It has over 4,000 views, for a poem! To me that is a big deal. I guess people like cock sucking on this site.
If I picked one that wasn't a poem, it would have to be my anal story. “Anal Virgin, But Not For Long”, it’s done extremely well. I’m happy with how it turned out. More so because I've never done anything anal, so it was a chance, and going by what I think would happen.
Titles are tricky, and I'm not terribly good at them usually. The majority of mine are straightforwardly descriptive of the content - on the grounds that people like a story that "does what it says on the tin". So when you click on "Two Teen Lesbian Virgins and a Vibrator", you pretty much know what you're going to get. But there are a few others that are a bit more subtle, and these are probably my favourites.
To answer the actual questions:
What are your favorite 2 story titles of your own stories and why?
"Pyramus and Thisbe" is one, named because the action reflects (very loosely) the action of the story in Ovid's "Metamorphoses" of the two lovers who communicate through a hole in a wall. Naturally, my two characters do more than just talk. I was well into the story/poem before the title came to me, and I just had to use it, even if not everyone would get the reference.
"I'm a Bit Tied Up This Afternoon" is probably next, because it's a silly pun on two meanings of "tied up". And I like silly puns. In this case, I think the title came quite early on, and the plot of the story was almost written round it.

On the basis of story views, "Schoolgirl Dares With Sarah" is my most successful by a significant margin (46,447 and counting, with 50 people listing it as a favourite). Surprisingly, it is not an incest story, but it does have the almost equally enticing word "schoolgirl" in the title. Perhaps it is a bit of a tease too, because you don't know the nature of the dares until you read it.
Next would be "Open Air Sex with Daddy, Mummy and Brother" - a touch under 30,000 views (28 favourites). I don't think any further explanation is needed, other than to say that the title (like the story) was deliberately meant to be tongue-in-cheek.

Best story title seems to be Truth or Dare. Might work because everyone loves a good truth or dare story
