I have never been big on subtitles, but decided this book could use one, to convey that while the title and cover are similar to Columbine, Parkland has a very different focus. (Different time, different situation, different goal.)
I loved the simplicity of the cover, though, so I pitched an idea to my publisher: an inside subtitle, which will appear on the title page inside, and on book sites like Amazon and Barnes & Noble, but not on the cover. They loved it.
So it is now Parkland: Birth of a Movement.
And it's also available for pre-order, BTW. It's at all the major sites, and I've got direct links at my Parkland page.
Here's what it looks like on Amazon:
My friends and I sometimes use FMovies when we want to find something to watch together. It usually ends with us debating what to pick, laughing at the best scenes, and talking about it afterward.

This blog post about the new book is really interesting—love the idea of an inside subtitle! Also, the page layout looks clean and easy to navigate. By the way, if you're building a site like this, this gradient generator is super handy for styling.
I like the idea of an inside subtitle, it adds context without taking away from the level devil - not a troll game simplicity of the cover.
The blog post about the inside subtitle for the Parkland book is a clever idea—simple yet effective. The archive and tag list show a lot of thoughtful work over the years. Definitely worth a read, just like cursed images for a different kind of rabbit hole.
