Cue Lines

"If you were there, you'da been running for your life."

"My old room was just the way I'd left it."

"Who here remembers first grade? I do."

"The last time I had seen my brother I could push him around. Now, I was the one fighting to stay upright."

"Every Sunday morning after church, my grandparents would fix breakfast at their house."

"I imagine my car accident was horrific; I had seen my car and heard the stories. Yet I couldn't remember a thing."

"The t.v. was dedicated to college football on Saturday afternoon at our house."

  1. These are wonderful. I especially love the first one - I can just imagine the essay that would follow, and the direct connection with the reader through the use of "you" is particularly effective.

  2. The fourth one is great. It says a lot in those two sentences.
