Friday 2 October 2009 7 potential first sentences for my next short story

  1. Nettie had always been a llama and as such was used to people laughing at her.
  2. The glass shattered on the cold hard floor sending shards spinning across the room.
  3. 'Why me?' James despaired as his head went into the toilet for yet another dunking.
  4. Looking out of the diner window, Marty could see the man in the long grey coat lurking by the phone box for the third day in succession.
  5. Starting at the beginning wasn't as simple as you would expect, Dr Patterson explained to the duty sergeant.
  6. Brian knew it could be done, he just didn't yet know how.
  7. It wasn't until Michael opened the fridge that he realised the implications of what he had overheard the night before.
