The king of the jungle stood on the cliff overlooking the desert. His domain seemed peaceful, but he knew that today would be the most
challenging day of his life.
"What do you think. Tim? Is that a great opening line for the story assignment or what?" Jon said proudly. He knew he had the instincts
and ability to be a great writer, and in his daydreams, he saw his first novel at the top of all the bestseller lists.
"It would be great if. (a), you knew anything about lions, and (b). you knew anything about the desert, which clearly, you do not. Really
you need to reread the assignment before you write your story."
"But we're just supposed to use our imagination to write a short story." Jon insisted. "My imagination tells me that a lion story would be
great. I've seen them at the zoo. I've always thought they were massively intelligent, and Mrs. Edmunds said we should write what we
know."
Tim smiled. "And she also asked us to avoid clichés like 'king of the jungle.' Let me give you an example of a good opening line." Tim
picked up his notebook and read.
