First Lines Meme

[sinanju]

RULES: List the first lines of the last ten stories you published.* Look to see if there are any patterns that you notice yourself, and see if anyone else notices any! Then tag some friends. I saw it on raine_wynd's dreamwidth account. Only the first is fanfic. The others were published as ebooks.

1. Even Villains Need Friends - A despairing cry jolted Thomas Magnum from his sleep.

2. Rematch - Leah dropped out of an overcast sky to land on the roof of the US Bank Tower overlooking downtown Portland.

3. Domestic Tranquility - My day started with a bang.

4. Reader - The first time it happened I got beaten up.

5. Party Girls - Rico's party was well under way when Angela emerged from the bathroom, freshly showered, wrapped in a silk robe and feeling fit for human company again.

6. Angela Rides Again - The first time it happened, Angela thought nothing of it.

7. The Restless Dead - The ranch wasn't even smoldering any longer when we topped the last hill on the road home.

8. Gratuitous Sex and Violence - Evan paused in his circuit of the club to observe the dance floor.

9. Back for More - Angela's phone trilled as she was parking her car.

10. Ink - Camille stopped at the corner so abruptly that her girlfriends bumped into her.

What does this say about my writing? You tell me.
