Same story, new title!
The tale of Rebecca Warren has a new title. Named after the school where it all began back in 2020, “Capitol Street Academy” continues the story of a teenage girl and her fight against the tyrannical King Mathias.
Why the change?
The original title, “A World Without War,” was originally a placeholder name during the revisions of the first book. One thing that I struggle the most with any story is creating a title. AWWW simply described how I made the world, but it didn’t give the readers any indication of what the story was like. Not wanting to wait around to launch the series as it was my first book to be published, I decided to go ahead with it.
Two years and two books later, my sister began reading the first book and she was stunned by what the story was like compared to the title. Initially she believed it was about a dystopian world, but she began comparing the story to other academy series such as “Vampire Academy” by Richelle Mead and “Zodiac Academy” by by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti. After some discussion, it hit me that “Capitol Street Academy” was the perfect fit for Rebecca’s story. I also get a much better abbreviation with CSA.
What about those who have bought the first two “A World Without War” books and want a complete set of those?
I will not be continuing the “A World Without War” title for the final two books in the series. However, you do not need to buy the first two CSA books in order to read books 3 and 4 if you already have AWWW 1 and 2. But if you’d like a complete set, I will do a discount on the first two CSA books if you trade in your AWWW books. Since this affects mostly my friends and family, I will only offer this discount in person.
I want to shout out my friends and family for their support for my writing. They have been the best fans! I hope that with the changes to the title, more people will discover my work and enjoy it!
