Okay, I found this meme somewhere. You take the first line of the last twenty-five fics that you've written and post them, and then see if there's any similarities in them.
Apparently out of the last twenty-five things I've written, I've started a fic with dialogue six times. In the last six months or so, I've apparently developed a habit of slapping an interjection into the middle of my opening sentence. Don't know what that's about, but it is interesting. I didn't realize that. The rest seem to fall into the category of either description or a definitive statement of some kind. Dunno. I just thought it was kind of fun to see how I started things. :D
