First-Line Vending Machine

Pick a mood, pull the lever, get an opening line worth keeping. No blank page survives this.

Free account, ten seconds — keeps this and everything else you make.

The hardest sentence in any book is the first one. Feed this machine a mood, cozy mystery, slow dread, one funny aunt, and it hands back an opening line with a hook already in it. Keep it, bend it, or let it spark a better one of your own.

Is the first line generator free?
Yes. Pull the lever as many times as your conscience allows.
Can I use the lines it gives me?
Yes, they're yours. Openers are prompts, not property.
