One of my favorite opening lines of a novel is from the book Dancing at the Rascal Fair, by Ivan Doig. “To say the truth, it was not how I expected – stepping off toward America past a drowned horse.”
My favorite opening line is from the book Breath of the Lion, by Richard McMaster
“Forty-eight years is a long time. An even longer time to miss the only woman you ever loved.”
You’re the best. Lucky too
