I should like to tell you that my name is Penelope Cornapeous Hornpickle, and that I live in a spiral-towered, four-story house, with six chimneys, three porches, and a grey fence surrounding a yard sparsely populated with patches of green grass pressing against a grey fence, in what I believe is a valiant attempt to escape—but I can't, because my name is Jack Tumbleweed Wrakleday.
That's an intriguing opening paragraph. Sets the imagination for what must surely follow.
I like this challenge as many of my short stories begin in this manner.
As a writer, I control the lives of millions. Whole worlds can be destroyed by typing the correct sequence of letters on my keyboard.
