No! "Once upon a time," is the worst ever.

I don't believe that there's actually a such thing as a really bad opening line because the more you make it "bad" the more the reader wants to read on to see WHY you are trying to make it sound horrible. I think....
There's such things as bad openings though.
Or maybe I'm just over analyzing things. Or maybe this is just a weird question. Either one is fine with me. The End.

If you faint at the mention of blood, or are one of those people who will have to be taken to the hospital or psychocoligist when one of my characters gets harmed, you should probably stop reading, because on page 241, Bob, Fred, and Sally all die and Regina falls off a cliff.. but keep reading anyway because you never know what will happen!

I jumped off a cliff and died. The End. Or is that the beginning? Oh, it's the beginning of the end. But the end has no beginning. Ok, I'll tell the story from the beginning. Once upon a time, there was a me, and I died. The End.

That sound like me. Yeah.

Winter's Twelfth Night says...



Two households, both alike in dignity. (In fair Verona, where we lay our scene), from ancient grudge break to new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil- wait, what? What did you say? You say you've read this line before? You say you've heard it spoken on stage? Well you are wrong. You have never heard this line before. And you have never read it either. It is brand new and this is the first story in which it has been printed. Anyway, back to the prologue...
Mamillius: Merry or sad shall’t be?
Hermione: As merry as you will.
Mamillius: A sad tale’s best for winter. I have one
Of sprites and goblins.

The Winter's Tale
  








In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.
— JRR Tolkien
