Does the starter have to be the very first sentence or can I add a sentence before it?

In the first five sentences as said in the guidelines @ThemagicalEbonyFox.

@Dranzer Nope! There are three days left for participants to submit their stories and after that, judging begins.

Looks like I'll have to throw in the towel as well. I really wanted to participate in this, but there's just too many things going on and too many other commitments! I'll work on some final Review Week reviews instead. ;)

Good luck to the other contestants! And thanks for picking up and hosting this contest, Kays!

I'm really sorry to say this, because I was really interested in it, but I won't be able to finish this in time. College is way more time intensive than I expected and I am drained of ideas and energy. I wrote a few small beginnings based off of the prompt, though, so that was fun.
Thanks for taking this over @Kays. Good luck to everyone else! Sorry about this!

Nope, I don't think I'm going to finish. I think I'll have to drop out too. It was fun while it lasted.

Ugh, I have to drop out. Got halfway through my story, but I don't have enough time to finish it before the deadline. Might see it appear on YWS later, though.
