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!
The many things that silenced us
In this land, you don't speak about religion outside because one minute you're having an argument with your friend, next, you're on the ground- knife to your belly, curved so that your intestines gushed alongside blood whilst your lifeless eyes stared at the bloodbath happening because you couldn't keep shut.
