I thought this might be a fun, ongoing thread. Take the opening paragraph from one of your works, be it a novel or short story, and post it in this thread. The person who posts after you will comment on your paragraph, and then post one of theirs.
Comments should be along the lines of:
1. Did you like the opening.
2. Would you continue to read beyond it?
3. Why or why not.
Comments can be as brief or lengthy as you like, so long as they hit on those three points. If you want to comment on other opening paragraphs earlier in the thread, that's fine, but you have to at least comment on the one immediately preceding your own post.
Any takers?
