Would you guys ever pick up a book called "Over-Clock"?

I'm asking because i had an idea to write a story, base it around sci-fi body mods, and call it over clock. I'd go into details but i'm not done ironing out the whole story, but you can assume their would be abuses of the privileges and scorn from the ruling class.

Sounds promising. Just don't write like ass or throw in an obligitory sub-plot that suddenly becomes far more important than the actual main plot.

 

[PixieFace]

As long as your writing is good, I don't care about titles.

Be careful not to fall into the trope of making the upper class citizens all two-dimensional bigoted hate machines. There are always good people in a group, no matter how 'bad' that group is.

Oh. I know that, i was going to run it like the Anti-Drug campaigns. Concerned individuals, cops, ad's on T.V.s. I wanted to set it in the adolescent stage of development for the "modders" and body-hackers that were slowly turning their brains into intricate computers

don't write like ass

'Don't write like ass'
The single greatest piece of advice ever given.

My writing is far from ass! It's atleast nipple or collar bone.

Collar bone writing is where it's at! Yeah, I might pick it up if I heard anything about it. I'm not one to just randomly buy a book I know nothing about just because of the title or cover art, but it'd catch my eye enough for me to look it up. Over-Clock does sound like a cool name to use, and if you combined it with a cool cover, you'd really get some attention.

Go for it-I'm currently writing a fantasy book that will never get anywhere, but I always encourage writers to write.
