I decided that The Last Great Minds of 2084 was just a little too heady for the work, even though it is a literary piece.  I have renamed the both the novel and screenplay World-Mart, which I believe will appeal to the larger target audience I feel is appropriate for the works.  The novel is literary, but it is also quick-paced and suited for a broad adult and young adult audience.  The screenplay is very dramatic, but also very sci-fi, and I think the previous title sold the story a little short.

I have also decided, at least for now, that I am going to name my entire dark fantasy trilogy The Darkness and the Night, and simply define the three different story lines as Book One, Book Two, and Book Three.  I may change my mind on this again, or I might decide simply to give each a separate subtitle.  I still have a few months before I'm finished writing all three, so I still have some time before I have to make my final decision.

Even then, as evident in World-Mart, a.k.a. The Last Great Minds of 2084, a name can change at any time....
