Georgia sounds like a real braveheart--an inviting character. That's a good hook in itself. All of the opening lines showcase the plotline, intrigue, challenge and contraversy, so it sounds like good value. Well thought out and executed, it should do really well. Good entry. Much luck in the contest, I liked it. Ash.

This entry into the competition really intrigues me. I wonder of you will expand upon this and write a short story? I would love to read on. Good luck.

    Thank you so much, hotstuff, for your kind and generous review and those lovely stars. I may write the story one day, but not right now, quite busy with another novel and some short stories. Warmest regards my friend, Marijke

Good job! Now you HAVE to write the story too. This is a fun contest, a great way to get a book started too I would think, gets the mind all stirred up to read the book or write more. I like the picture too.

    Thank you Shetu. Sorry, can't give you the stories - against the contest rules, but I hope the lines were interesting enough, that if I wrote a novel with those lines, it would make you pick up the book and wish to keep reading. Thank you for your review and generous rating. Warmest regards, Marijke

You've certainly intrigued me about this murder mystery by just these ten chapter-starting lines, Marijke - it sounds like there's lots of passion and intrigue going on. You've piqued my curiosity for sure. Brooke :-)

I found that each and every line is a very good line that might be added to a storyline. I found this piece to be well written. It was my pleasure to have read and written a review for it... John

fionageorge,

an excellent contest entry, my friend. Great descriptives within each line allow our minds to follow the story quite easily. Nice work and I wish you luck in the contest.
