My Book Writing Friend,
The first lines of your story sets the tone for your whole story... so make them powerful!
Just like some of the sales letters and ads I've written, you only have one chance to grab that reader. If that first paragraph doesn't hook them, you've lost them.
How can you reach out and pull that reader into your story? Remember, emotions count!
Don't make the mistake made by many others... leaving out emotions. These can be the emotions exhibited by the characters or those implied by the author.
Let the readers in on how the characters should be responding emotionally to the different situations. Sound difficult? OK, how about this...
“Closer and closer to the bottom of the stairway, the doctor was now ready to cautiously take his first step to whatever it was that awaited him upstairs. His heart was beating ever faster and drowning out everything else, until suddenly a creak was heard at the top of the stairs...”
Nuf said?
