Starting your story is the most difficult part of the writing process. Once you've got a prompt and start writing, it gets easier. It can be difficult to find an appealing sentence starter but once you got a brilliant one, the reader will be hooked from the start. For ex;

- The wind swirled around me and the world went black...
- At first, I couldn't understand why I had woken up - then I felt the icy fingers close around my wrist...
