To write an introduction is to welcome. To write an introduction is to warn. To write an introduction is to bother. To write an introduction is to mourn.
Introduction: what powers they have. To instantly grip a reader. Sometimes it is simple just to say what your story is about. Sometimes it is to establish tone, type of narration, character, what-have-you. To write an introduction is to promise, though that promise may be broken in the pages of the book.
Start small, start big, start fantastical, start mundane.
Start.
I am writing this because I just wrote what I consider to be one of the best introductions I have ever written, and while I will not share it here, you may see it in the future.
Now there’s a hook.
