Announcing the Title of the Next Balls Book! We Have a Winner!

Hi everyone--

Just in time for Valentine's Day, i'm announcing the WINNER of the Title Search for the next Balls book. Back in January, i asked everyone to please give me ideas for Balls Book titles. I needed one for Jerry''s story which is about a firefighter. Two in fact. And Fire Balls, of course, is taken. I got probably a hundred suggestions and some of them are great! I may use them in future books.

But, the title i loved best for the next Balls book is:

F.A.S.T Balls

It stands for Firefighter Assist and Search Team! Is that perfect or what?

And the winner is Mary G!!! Congratulations Mary. The next Balls book will be dedicated to you!  

Okay, so tell me do you like it best with the periods as it's written above or without?

FAST Balls

Thanks to everyone who made suggestions! You're great and i will be rolling in Balls titles for years! F.A.S.T. Balls will likely be released somewhere around June. I have to finish writing it first! Mary G., please leave me your email!  Happy Day everyone. : )

  2. If you don't notice the periods it's a pitch in baseball.

    1. True, though not usually capitalized. But i think the periods make it more intriguing. : )

  3. Wow! That's amazing! And exciting! I like it with the periods too so it's fire related not baseball related. Readers will hopefully realize that it stands for something. Thanks Tara!
