A very well-written introduction. In a world of madness it is not easy to find beauty or normal. When the norm is to be mad there is no place for normal. Outside beauty always proof to be ugly inside.

Bad? Honestly, I don't know how bad this can be if it cracked me up big time. A snake`s asshole? Too funny. This is going to be a great trilogy. You are going to have to polish your seduction powers to get backing though. I think you may still have it. HEHEHE!! NG

Well I read this, then read the requirements and then read again, and I reckon you've nailed the criteria for a very bad opening line. Good luck with the financial backing LOL and in the contest.
cheers.

Yes, this is a beautifully bad first line right down there with "It was a dark and stormy night." It can't get any worse than what you penned. Truth be told, it takes craft and humor to achieve what you accomplished in your opening line about the abnormal Norm the alien. You broke every rule in the book to pen this--overuse of Norm and its derivatives, passive, long sentence. Your closing clause was hilarious:
Norm could never attain the beauty to be normal in a world where beauty was uglier than a snake's asshole seen through a kaleidoscope.
Thank you for scaring. I think I will pass on your novel, but I wish you success in the contest with this How Bad Can It Be? entry.

Awesome, Michael. Horribly, terribly awesome. I wonder how those creative ideas flow through your head. I got my laugh for the day. The author notes are hilarious.
Sorry - I'm outta sixes. (but I think I might get $$$ to back your trilogy when I show them you first sentence)
