i wish to have no connection with any ship that does not sail fast

That first sentence meme--post first sentences from various WIPs, et cetera.

I've decided to give these no particular explanation (that is to say, am not including theoretical titles) because it's more fun that way (read: I suck at titles). If for some reason, you want further information about any of them, you need only ask. ♥

• "Ruthie Rutherford, aged forty-three years, ten months, and three days, had been a server of suppers at the Diner's Delight Delightful Diner and Cafe for approximately fifteen of those years."

• "Chuck stretched, back arching as catlike as the suit she currently wore."

• "Up to sunset, the Hudson glittered like the surface was a sea of diamonds instead of a polluted river, and Calla hated it."

• "Many years later, far from a city she could no longer bear to visit, she watched the last dregs of sunset drain away from a wide window a dozen stories above the street."

• "it is a balancing act with purpose"

• "take note: shakespeare didn't use them."

I've left off WIPs that I've posted, because what're you interested in those for, you know? You can read them already. XD

In conclusion, there's a reason most of these are still WIPs. >>
