In my first creative writing workshop ever I introduced myself & the prof said “Oh, based on your submission I thought you were a 40 year old man”
& that’s really need to know about me lol (I was 21)

If I’ve learned one thing in my late-ish twenties, it’s that idle moments shouldn’t always be spent trying to find something to do or running through the swirling list of concerns and plans and limerence in your head, one more time, forever.
Some of them should be spent, well, idling.
Since 1878, who has matched or bested Tolstoy with the best first sentences in novels?
Anna Karenina (translated) → “Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way”
Gabriel García Márquez’s first sentence in Cien años de soledad makes my list too.
What makes yours?
