Hey, I know this is a bit random, but I've started re-editing Harry Evans, of which the title is actually Memoirs of a well-lived death, a name you've all not seen for a while since I'm way to lazy to ever write it out on Patreon lol, always referring to it as Harry Evans.

Anyway, I realised while reading again that this title doesn't actually represent what I'm trying to do with the story anymore, so I was wondering if you could listen to some of my suggestions.

Here's a little blurp I wrote to describe what I'm actually trying to achieve with the story. Tell me if its accurate.

What to expect from this story: My favorite genre is that of the self-insert. A shameless power-fantasy where someone uses their fore-knowledge and relative maturity to dunk on all others and become the only favored under the heavens. Unfortunately, I am also a writer and reader who loves realism. I dislike plots in which main characters gain a bullshit amount of power too fast. My other pet-peeve, as someone who has touched grass and lost their virginity, is how most of the self-inserts occurring through death simply forget their previous life. Me, personally, I actually have family I talk to and career prospects. If someone suddenly came to me and offered me the ability to reincarnate into a fantasy world of my choice, I probably wouldn't accept, or ask for it to happen in a few years if not decades. Thus, this story is a reflection of something that I myself would like to read. We got over the grief process now in the prologue, and the rest will be a normal Fanfic, although one where power gains will appear natural and plot armor will be minimal. If you're into slow-progression still leading to being overpowered, emotional maturity at the level of at least, a twenty year old, and an imperfect character who makes mistakes as we all do, but still strives to do his best, then this might be a story for you.

 

Anyway, in regards to this I was maybe thinking that the following titles might fit more. I'm mostly just flinging shit at a wall to see if it'll stick.

-Harry Evans: A realistic progression fantasy

-Reincarnated into Harry Potter, what else to do but become the greatest wizard alive?


Feel free to make your own suggestions

I personally find the current title to be the most interesting; A realistic progression fantasy feels very on the nose, as in it might be what the story is, but hits me as somewhat boring? Might be because the thing that interests me more in the story are the characters interactions and “a well lived death” seems more like the title of a character-driven story. Anyways, 80-smth chapters in I’m definitely way too hooked in this to mind a title change lol, so whatever works for you is fine. As this is my first time commenting, I’d like to say that I love the stuff and the Rattata story too🫶

Thanks, glad you enjoy both! Maybe one day the video game one will win you over as well haha

Harry Evans: The Boy Who Lived (Again) Very punny but has a ring to it

Memoirs of a Well-Lived Death is frankly one of the best titles I've seen for an SI, while there might be better, none of the ones I've seen suggested in these comments seem like an improvement.

The current title is unique and interesting even if it doesn’t encapsulate the story as nicely as you’d like, the two new options just sound like generic isekai fantasy titles 😭

Damn everyone seems to like this title actually, makes sense if they're on the patreon I guess. Survivor bias

Current title is fire. But it was the summary that made me read over on spacebattles. Unfortunately I think changing the title to something else is also changing it to something lesser.

I like the original title. If you HAVE to change something, perhaps simply make it 'Harry Evans and the well-lived Death'? But as I said. I don't think you NEED to change it.
