Okay, so for my project I came up with these two titles: A Bizarre Summer Season, and A Bizarre Summer Vacation. The subtitle is 'When the Owls Sing'.
Here's a summary of what my project is about:
Here's a summary of what my project is about:
So which of the two titles do you guys think would sound better for this project?Oliver, the protagonist, is a university student who is currently on Summer break. He decides to use the break as an opportunity to go stay with his uncle, who lives in a small forest town, for the Summer so that he can do some research for a mystery novel that he's been writing off and on. Upon his arrival there, he learns from his uncle that several children from the area has recently gone missing, and that he should be careful when he's out gathering data because the town residents won't take kindly to outsiders during this time.
During his stay in town, Oliver learns from several locals that there's a strong belief among many of the town residents that you'll be cursed if you encounter an owl in broad daylight and it cries. He later learns that the reason for this strong belief is because there had been many victims in the past, and they all claimed that the incidents happened shortly after their encounter with some owls; some occurring in the morning while others in the early afternoons. Figuring the whole thing would make for a good mystery thriller plot, Oliver decides to look into the the past incidents and the recent disappearance of the children so that he can write about it and turn his novel into a Best Seller. The story then branches into two different scenarios, where Oliver can choose to either believe in the curse or he can choose to prove it as a conspiracy. Both scenarios will lead him into a series of strange events that will forever change his life.
