I feel like I’m over-blogging today, perhaps to make up for Friday, but there’s so much exciting stuff on the intrawebs! Like this brilliant list I agree with 99.99%, from J.A. Konrath. Yes, it’s personal, and your results may vary, but it’s a fantastic place NOT to start your story/novel.

Over-blogging? No such thing. And thanks for the link. It made me laugh because I saw the same thing when I was teaching English. No matter how many other examples I gave them, many students still liked to stick to the same boring story openers.
