Who's Got The BEST First Liner? #3
Can you make us thirsty for an entire novel by writing your BEST first line? Sell us on your big idea in fifty (50) words or less, but it must be done in ONE sentence. Draw us in by overwhelming our minds with excitement or say just enough to lure us after the next four hundred pages? Any Genre allowed. Must be Prose. The object is to grab us at the beginning and to make us never want to let go. NO AI WRITING ALLOWED. I pick the winner. Please tag me, @ChrisSadhill in the comments, and I'll read and respond to your entry! Happy writing!
There was a heavy silence, like a collectively held breath, that fell over the city in the moments before the first bomb detonated; the world I had known all my life was coming to an end.
