...I'm trying to practice writing too!
I'm taking the first lines that my friends have written each day, and am (attempting) to write fic bits that each begin with that same sentence. Granted, most of my stuff sucks, because I am not a good writer, but it's interesting practice nonetheless
If you'd like to give me your first sentences (of your NaNo, whatever you wrote today, or just anything you'd like me to work a fic from), you are more than welcome to pass them here! Also let me know if you have any particular fandom/prompt request you'd like along with the line.
I can't promise any level of quality, but you'll be giving me writing practice at least? I have everything up on GoogleWave right now (let me know if you'd like to be added), but if there's any interest, or I actually like whatever shite comes out of my chewed up mechanical pencil, I'll be posting here, too, under the "rough draft" tag.
To start, here's the fifth ficbit written so far. (Microfic, really, the others are averaging 200 words instead.) First line courtesy of
