Today's writing tip, from a reader: your first sentence is crucial. You'd be surprised how many people decide whether to read on, from the first sentence alone.
Personally, I flip to somewhere near the middle to assess the writing quality and style, but most people don't do it that way, I think?
Anyway, it might be intriguing to find out what your favorite first sentences are, of any book you've read.
