From the Keepers of Lists, here’s a few lines for you to use, if you’re looking for something to write about. I’ve picked out a few of my favorites.
- She walked into my office like a centipede with 98 missing legs.
- He was sharp, able to tell butter from “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter”
- The sun rose over the horizon like a great big radioactive baby’s head
- It hurt the way your tongue hurts after you accidentally staple it to the wall.
- He wanted to hold her forever, knowing eventually he’d have to take a whizz
- The sea raged, the wind howled, and the sand was just plain irritated.
- The thunder sounded like a thin sheet of metal being shaken backstage
And of course, the best way to start a mystery novella ever:
It was a dark and stormy night. It was the butler.
Enjoy, I always do.
