Writing Exercise: First Sentences

Hey, guys!

Time for a new writing exercise. I haven't done any new first sentences in a while, so that's what this one's going to be.

The following list is of sentences that could potentially be the first sentence in a scene, story, or dialogue. Pick one, and write that scene, story, or dialogue.

1) There is nothing more unbearable than poor circulation.

2) "Speak only when spoken to."

3) The snow that fell muffled every sound and blanketed the world in a clean white marred only by a crimson stain.

4) "You ever have one of those days when you just can't keep your eyes open?"

5) The best way to make a scene is to let the world know how you really feel and break some glass.

6) "Do tigers eat people?"

7) There are certain things you should never, under any circumstances, say to your wife out loud.

8) "You don't deserve cupcakes."

9) Nobody ever told me that the first rule to getting your dream job was to get a good night's sleep

10) "You have pumpkin breath."

As always, think outside the box and have fun.

Happy writing!!
