    On second thought, maybe the Massacre of Innocence. Dunno!

    That sounds good. I'm having real trouble finding a title. It needs to be exactly what I'm saying in the book, but I don't even know what i'm saying in the book yet. It's so complicated. The Massacre of Innocence - I like the sound of it but don't you think it sounds kinda like the title of a book about school shootings? Maybe for a second book...

    how about the title O.K., because people who are depressed just want to be okay again.

    Man, the Title only works if YOU name it. If it was written for the sake of the ART and not the money.

    NaykidApe, Check out posts on "Afternoon of Living". That might be a good title and you can quote member Burn. Maybe, since book is for teens you could use this title "From Early Dawn to an Afternoon of Living" Vetty

    I think you should call it what you said...."I'm stuck!"

    Didn't realize it was a non-fiction book! What is it about -- exactly? It's hard to name a thing unseen. Do you like the sound of "For Screaming Outloud"? I find Youthanasia interesting, something I would pick up of a shelf and browse.

    It's going to be filled with stories from teenagers who've been through depression and suicide attempts. Facts and stats, but not too many. I guess it wont be a very conventional book. Just me and my friend talking about the tragedy of teen suicide. I guess we're trying to figure out why so many teens are depressed and why so many are killing themselves.
    I need a title that shows how the teens are feeling. A lot of the ones suggested are really good, but I can't decide!
    More suggestions!

    Okay! These are off the top of my head. Take them or leave them!

    I really don't know, but your book sounds interesting. Am curious for your choice!
