You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

OK, I need more coffee. Will ponder.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The problem you may run into with food-related murder titles is that series by Diane Mott Davidson with the caterer. You could peruse her books for inspiration and/or to make sure you're not using anything she's used.

Is that an issue for books? Only in the same genre, or published within a certain number of years of each other? I have no idea.

Oh my god, I love this! ::making notes::

Yeah, you don't want to use a title that's already been used, although if it's completely different genres, it doesn't matter as much. Or if the previous book is really old or out of print.

Murder a la Carte?

Used for a series of books on how to stage those murder mystery dinner thingies yourself. Each book in the series has a fictional murder you can stage yourself as part of the dinner party. I think it includes props too.

On edit also used in actual mystery novel
