When my editor at Harper Collins asked me to pick a name for my latest novel, The Man Who Wouldn’t Die, I had the reaction you’d expect: Is Studs Bestseller already taken? My editor is very supportive and he offered a slight revision, suggesting Perennial Midlister. And, with that, the name was afoot!
