My friend, Duane Degutis has made a really Herculean effort to transfer my old book, Stories told in the kitchen, to two cds. I have a request, considering that I have never liked the title, I would appreciate some ideas from you for a new title.
It's a collection of Maine humor and my own observations which was printed over 30 years ago. Now, the thing is,many people have bought the original book so I want them to know that the CD is not a new work.
It needs a catchy title, and maybe a sub title.I'd like the word MAINE in it simply because anything with MAINE on it sells like ladders in a burning building.

GO!

I don't need the kitchen thing in the main title, but I do think I should somehow let any potential buyer know it is the old book reborn. If someone was to buy the CD and then find out that it is just an old book that they already have, they might have a problem with that.

"Maine Lies Downeast" is also one of my favorite titles.
