No. There is nothing wrong with the title. Indeed I intended to request you to tell me my story.
I have always dreamt about being a writer. Particularly a Fiction writer. A story teller. I don't write very well though. I find it hard to convey my story in a way that people would not actually misunderstand me. It always has been my problem. If three people read my story I will have four different interpretation of my that story.
"What's wrong with that?", my Girl Friend asked the other day.
According to her, if someone can relate to a story well enough that he can actually see it in a different perspective that that of the writer's, The writer had don a great job. It's your right to tell the story, It's theirs to understand it the way they wanted. Story, any story is not one dimensional, It has multiple facets and people will see different things from different angle. Is that so?
Hemingway, (the writer), once bet his friends that he could write a complete story in just six words. They paid up.
His story : "For Sale. Baby shoes. Never worn."
Did you get the story? Can you tell Hemingway his story? Can you tell me mine?

I totally think it is fine that people have different views on your writing, at least you'll know which one is right. But if you are really worried about that and dont like the idea just keep practicing and you might get better at expressing yourself crystal clear. Or, if you dont wanna wait, hire someone to help you.
