Write Stuff writer offers a great challenge in today's column First Impressions:
My favorite opening line:
“I was eighteen years of age when love opened my eyes with its magic rays and touched my spirit for the first time with its fiery fingers, and Selma Karamy was the first woman who awakened my spirit with her beauty and led me into the garden of high affection, where days pass like dreams and nights like weddings.” –The Broken Wings: Kahlil Gibran
My opening lines:
“It’s 2 A.M.
She thinks I’m crazy.”
