So this sentence completely had me hooked.

Here's what I wrote:

Simply People

And it's even on the Saga board! My second Saga Story! Woot! tongue

It's that time again, we get yet another new sentence on the gleeful hope that people will write more fic for me to read.

Now, for a bit of... well, it could be TMI *shrugs* Anyways, I've been a bit under the weather lately, and I bit my lip in my sleep due to it. Hard enough to break skin, and turn it into a mouth-sore. The problem (outside of just the pain of a mouth sore) is that a bite lip is not conducive to kissing my beloved, and long-suffering, wife. Well, it's healed now, so in honor of that, I've delved into one of my Heinlein novels and pulled forth this sentence:

Once in a great while lips meet and two spirits merge for a time and the universe is right and complete and the planets wheel in their proper places -- For Us, The Living, Robert A. Heinlein

Well, it's that most-pink of holidays, and as an American-male, I have to say that the Japanese have a much better tradition in regards to this particular day. For those that don't know, over there, it's the girl who gives the guy chocolate--and for their favorite guy, they try to make said chocolate at home.

But I digress, and since--and this is something my wife insists is true--The Empire Strikes Back is not a romantic-fantasy, I felt the need to prove that I do know other movies.

So, I delved back into my mind, and DVD collection to find the last romantic movie that I actually enjoyed watching, and pulled forth this quote to work as the special, Valentine's Day First Sentence.


"Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for a while." -- The Princess Bride

Am I the only one who sees a half dozen awfully mushy Anakin/Tahiri fics coming out of this sentence challenge? laugh

If I was any good at said mush, I'd probably give it a shot myself, but alas... sad

Ok, giving this a shot. But I'm going the really, really long route and starting with the quotes from 2005 first. Going to see how long I can keep a "chaptered" story going. Find my attempts here : http://boards.theforce.net/the_saga/b10476/29814579/p1/?0

Recently, I've been called insane--or crazy--for a number of various reasons (the least of which was watching my brother-in-law's 4 kids in addition to my 2 for a week). As such, this sentence just resonated wtih me....



Though this be madness, yet there is a method in it.

Does this mean that you're taking on the meta-challenge of using one of these sentence for the first sentence of each post? grin

Yes, that's exactly what I mean Kidan...I've already got the first two up. It helps that I already have a (very rough) flow in my head of where the story will go as I reach certain quotes. But I know that the first story will have an end before I run out of quotes...unless of course my SW muses gift me with a good continuation to the tale.
