The Author’s Prophecy: Unoriginal Beginnings To Come Ahead
In today's chapter, a prophecy will be told. A prophecy about the fate of these tales I tell you.
Do not fret. I don't plan to stop any time soon. However I'm here to warn you about the coming decline in first paragraph originality.
For you see. I'm running out of hook paragraphs in my mind's eye. I use this method to lure all you readers into the worlds I create. But soon that'll be no more.
The next chapters and short stories will start with things akin to or like that of "Once upon a time..." or "In a place far, far away..." .
So be warned by this prophecy and tread carefully forward.
Now read on, my faithful readers, and enjoy the tales to come...
