writing opening lines will forever be the bane of my existence. there are certain opening passages that are seared into my brain, that i wish i wrote or i wish i could emulate in my own writing. here are some of those.
sunburn, Chloe Michelle Howarth
our wives under the sea, Julia Armfield
martyr!, Kaveh Akbar
feast while you can, Mikaella Clements and Onjuli Datta
Anyone’s Ghost, August Thompson
