    So good, you shouldn’t forget a series of roman numerals following theory to account for all the sequels that will follow.

      Or you could just make each of the adjectives a comparative: The Slow Now’s sequel would then be “The Slower Now” and perhaps even “The Slowest Now.” It would work brilliantly. If only writing a book was as easy as coming up with a title.

    Hilarious. I think “The Slow Now” has best-seller written all over it….

      The Slow Now also sounds a bit like a book on meditation. Cheers, Matthew

    Adding
    “How”
    “The best”
    “Why”
    Will increase interest;
