Cómo utilizar el paquete de memorias para crear una página de título personalizada

Question

Probablemente exista una manera fácil de hacer esto, pero ¿cómo puedo agregar un estilo de página de título de memorias a un documento existente? Probé este código, pero todavía aparece la página de título básica.

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper,twoside]{memoir}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage{titlesec}  %needs recent version of »titlesec«
\usepackage{xcolor}


\newcommand*{\titleGM}{\begingroup% Gentle Madness
\drop = 0.1\textheight
\vspace*{\baselineskip}
\vfill
\hbox{%
\hspace*{0.2\textwidth}%
\rule{1pt}{\textheight}
\hspace*{0.05\textwidth}%
\parbox[b]{0.75\textwidth}{
\vbox{%
\vspace{\drop}
{\noindent\HUGE\bfseries Some\\[0.5\baselineskip]
Conundrums}\\[2\baselineskip]
{\Large\itshape Puzzles for the Mind}\\[4\baselineskip]
{\Large THE AUTHOR}\par
\vspace{0.5\textheight}
{\noindent The Publisher}\\[\baselineskip]
}% end of vbox
}% end of parbox
}% end of hbox
\vfill
\null
\endgroup}

\title{\Huge\textbf{ORTHODOX RULE OF PRAYER}}
\author{\Large\textbf{Father Thomas Moore, Michael Dykes}}
\date{\Large{\today}}

\begin{document}

\title{\Huge\textbf{ORTHODOX RULE OF PRAYER}}
\author{\Large\textbf{Father Thomas Moore, Michael Dykes}}
\date{\Large{\today}}

Towards evening, we stand before the holy icons (having lit a candle and        maybe some incense), with reverence and fear of God; we gather our thoughts, make the        Sign of the Cross, and say:

\end{document}

¡¡¡Gracias!!!

Solo necesita crear la \droplongitud e invocarla \titleGMen su documento (hice otros dos cambios menores, estableciendo el estilo de la página y emptycambiando la altura de la regla para evitar un llenado excesivo \vbox):
