Book Titles and Chapters

by Renee Paule

Hi All,

It seems like ages since I've posted anything on here but that's because I've been so busy with my books.

Does anyone here know if there's a specific name to describe a chapter that has the same title as the book itself? If not I'm thinking about calling it my 'title chapter'.

Thanks in advance

Renee

I'm not sure, either, but 'title chapter' always struck me as being the first, by association.

Not sure there is a name for it: it's probably referred to as 'the chapter from which the book takes its title' which is rather a handful. I'd stick to 'title chapter'!
