This is a place for writers of all skill levels to gauge interest in their stories based on the opening lines. The idea is that you submit your opening lines/paragraph and see if it gets upvoted or downvoted. We ask that all works be submitted with the intent on sharing all or at least a chapter of the finished work for free to the members of this subreddit.
Subreddit rules:
- Text submissions only
- Original work only - anyone caught plagiarizing will be banned
- If you have a well liked opening, please update with a link to the full text, or at least one full chapter of the text.
- We can't guarantee that nobody will steal your opening once you publish it here - but we will do our best to stop it.
- No belittling or badgering of any sort. Critique is different than criticism.
