I've rewritten my first chapter three times now and will probably start on my fourth today, but the first sentence has remained the same each time. I'm not sure if that means it's a great opening sentence or if it is the problem. 🙂
@Godfly Actually, I consider myself an innovator. A rule breaker. A revolutionary. I’m going with “It was a stormy and dark night” and I’m going to blow the lid off the literary community. 🙂
@bradreed Be a peace-maker.
"It was a dark and quiet night".
("Everyone was happy together. Nothing disturbing happened. The end.")
(If you want to use that as your short story, please feel free to. In the spirit of harmony, I do not claim any proprietary interest whatsoever. PEACE 🙂 !)
@Godfly Totally running with this. Might be the first story I write that my mother really digs. 😀
@Godfly Genius! 🙂
