I'd vote for that too.
However, it is actually a good start.

I haven't 'buggered off' - I went to bed. Even mods sleep, you know.
Also, as the self-appointed sole judge of which 10 entries make the shortlist, I have to stay neutral.
But I can assure you that I've read the current entries with some interest - and I'm genuinely impressed.

See if anyone gets the reference, for the record I actually enjoy this book so please don't ban me as my entry for the worst opening sentence. I couldn't pick the main book as it gave it away, however, this one Generalities should get.

So... how much you wanna cough up to keep us from mentioning you entering the Boss Man's work in a bad opening sentence competition?
Remembering that he does have the code in the palm of his hand, controls all the Mod tools, and is (generally) able to get [violet] to go along with him...

I spied the cover of Jennifer Government in a library several years ago, read the blurb and thought "what the hell, I'll give it a go". That's how I found Nationstates.
I read Jennifer Government because I was on Nationstates and figured I might as well read the book. Since then I have bought and read everyone of his books since.
