One aspect of writing I am not good at is coming up with eye-catching titles. Now, I need one for my historical fiction proposal before it goes winging on its way, and nothing is coming to me. Any ideas here??? It's set in Renaissance Italy, features art, murder, and, well, all kinds of Italian things. :)
Any help deeply appreciated.

Or is it not romance? Hmmm...

Sorry, I have no good ideas today!
Meet the Medicis.

(Which one???)
Being Borgia.
Morte and Mortadella.
See, told you I have no good ideas!
What are the characters' names?

It's not a romance, which is what is making it hard for me! I can come up with plenty of romance-ish things, but nothing eye-catchingly historical. :)
The main character's name is Isabella, and the main artist we see is Botticelli. I've been flipping through art books and Italian dictionaries, but nothing so far....
Botticelli Code
Botticelli DeCoded
Botticelli Debackle
Hmm. Would probably help if we knew the point of the plot.
Isabella's Artful Dodge
I have no idea, really. We need more information, Ammanda
