Cheering you all on!
Some AWers have officially started NaNo, so I will start the thread. What is the first line of your NaNoWriMo novel?

(I'm the first? How did that happen?)

Lionel took the photograph out of his wallet and once again wondered if he should frame it.

The truck thumped over a hump in the road, jolting Tobias out of the semi peaceful dream in which he had been ensconced.

Mrs. Cinocci’s basilisk was giving me some serious side-eye.

The first day of school usually was a day of happiness and excitement for Rory but the first day of his senior year of high school had turned into anything but happy and exciting for all the wrong reasons.

You wouldn't think fairies hide out in that greenbelt. But it's true.

I'm not participating in NaNo this year (no, that's not my first line), but I am loving these! So much potential in each one of them. My mind can't help but carry the story forward and imagine what's next.
