Twilight Parody Week
Minor update: We have a new minivan. His name is Helsing. In my spare time, I plan to run over vampires with it.
So last week, when I was checking my visitor stats, I learned that I am second in the Google results for good ideas for a Twilight parody. You know what this means; you remember what happened when I became obsessed with my quest for Batman eyebrow domination.
I must prove my parodical superiority.
So this week shall be Twilight parody week, just so I can see what a week's full of entries on the subject will do to my standings. You know what this means: a week of hot merpire action! We may even have a wet t-shirt contest.
Now, the first thing that's got to happen is a title, because I cannot continue to call it The Twilight Parody. I've got a couple of ideas...
Votes? Suggestions? We already know how horrid I am at titles, so give me a little help here in the name of all that is good and Twilight parodish.

Merpire Lite (hmm... sounds like a beer, doesn't it?)
Twannabes
Ochre Twilight
Just Drown Her Already

Twannabes has my vote. I don't think I would drink the Merpire Lite.
How about...
Twilight: Now with Ninjas
Cuz that's something I'd actually read. Ninjas are about the only thing that could save Twilight, IMO.
Sweet, this is going to be an awesome week. I can feel it.
Hm, titles.
If you're going for some drama:
As The Tide Turns
If you're going for obvious:
Twilight...But Not
If you're going for cocky:
The Better Version of That One Vampire Book
If you're going for wordplay:
Tidelight
I'll be back. I can generate silly titles all day.
Oh, more titles:
New Shore, Monsoon, Breaking Waves
I bet you'll get even more major hits with this!
Hmmm, I'm not great with titles either...
Breaking Waves at Dawn
New Moon on Merpire Monday (oh, wait that's a Duran Duran song...)
I thought it was already called Twlight.
Suggestions:
Twi-Lite - Lesser Calories. Same Great Taste. (Which means you can read more and not get fat, right?)
Ochres, and Sparkly's, and Undead Things Oh My!
Fun with Ward & Ellba (a la Dick and Jane)
This last one is not bad. You could have such lines as: SEE WARD SPARKLE IN THE SEA or maybe RUN ELLBA RUN
** Odd one: My word verification today is 'bargod'. Bot you can this one many ways none of them that good ;-)
Wow, people have better ideas than me, LOL. I like Twannabes. :)
Ooh, goodie, this is going to be a fun week! I'm bad with titles too, but I think you should mention sparklies in there somewhere.
Dielight?
Oh, I'm loving Nat's Tidelight!
Dusk? :-D
Congrats on the minivan. Let the hot vampires live though! :-)
You can be number one, Carrie! I can't wait to see what you're up to this week.
I vote for Natalie's titles!
Y'all are good. I kind of agree that there should be a sparkle in there somewhere.
Hmmm... must keep thinking.
Hmm. Add Sparkles.
How about Twinkle+light=Twinklight or Twinklite?
Twannabes :)
Enjoy your new minivan. :)
You want Sparkles? Alright, let's explore that. (Did I mention I used to spend hours generating ridiculous titles for a college magazine?)
Tide of Sparkles
Sparkle on the Water
Sparkling Dawn
Sparkling Scales in My Baby Pool
The Eclipse Took My Sparkles
Moon Sparkles
Besparkled
What? I should stop? Oh, fine. This is what happens when I finish a WIP...what to do, what to do.
Yay on the new van!
Mer-juice
Mwhahaa!!
Ok I had to say it. I'm crap at titles as well.
Twannabes
(w/Sprinkles!)
That's sparklie, right?
