First Sentence Meme
Dec. 13th, 2006 12:43 pmI’ve seen this meme around where you post the first sentence of the first piece of fanfiction you have posted each month and I thought it would be interesting to do it. If anything it has exposed my habit of starting of stories with the name of a character. I seem to have given it up in recent months though.
January – “Junior Auror Nymphadora Tonks took a deep breath as she entered the room.” – Auror Disciplinary Committee Case 1229.
February – “Buckbeak always thought of himself as special.” – Vanity, Thy Name is Hippogriff
March – “The old suitcase sitting in the corner caught Tonks' eye as she headed for the bathroom.” Unravelling
April – “Kingsley Shacklebolt leaned his knuckles on the table before him, purposely towering over the smaller man sitting across the table.” Ghosts in the Interrogation Room
May – “Neville Longbottom poked his spoon at his porridge, lifting out a large portion.” – Growing
June – “The last thing Remus decided he needed today was being forced to show a teenager the ropes.” - The Ropes
July – “It seemed to Tonks that there existed two parallel Londons.” - Prisoners of War
August – “What is the point of killing Molly Weasley, I wonder while I glance at my sister’s grinning face.” - Walking Down Corridors
September – “From his spot underneath a tree, Harry watched Ron emerge from around the side of the Burrow.” – Two Snitch-Brained Idiots
October – “For all the noise the waves made crashing against the side of the Dauntless, for all the roars of thunder and claps of lightning, for all the desperate screams and yells from the unfortunate men cast into the unforgiving sea, in the depth below the waves it was silent.” – Penance More Will Do
November – Didn’t actually post any new fic other than some chapters of Growing.
December – “Being women of business, it was only natural for the Tortuga whores to take an active interest in the fortune of the local pirates.” - The Truth of the Matter (I haven’t actually posted this yet, but it's not far off being posted I don’t think the first line is going to change between now and then.)
