I'm just a bit behind...
I like this thread- very interesting. =]

My first three words are a sentence.
"His eyes burn."

either

'There is a ...' [dead spot in the night]

or

'She watched me' [With yellow eyes, she watched me.]

I'm in year 10, but I have started a short story which may very well end up as a major work. :)

The first three words are, "Mamma strode gallantly" (across the room, staring at me, her angry eyes a sign of the imminent eruption). After that - "Federico, get over here!" she snapped at me.
I like it, myself, arrogance yes. :)

Quote starting: "Why is it"
And my start which will probably get changed before long: "The light was"

I've written three parts of mine and now it's like... hmm. Where to now?

Yeah I know what you mean...
It's hard to really get stuck in there and start knuckling out the details.
I like looking at it from here...
I don't want this year to progress! =[ I wish time would stop. STOPSTOP!

I carry my journal with me to school every day, its easy because its so light anyway. Just jotting down things as they come to me so I can go back over ideas which I thought of but never really gave much credit to.

Also, wide reading of both fiction and non fiction and previous MW's.

Fair enough. If I was you though, I would make sure I still got time to rest, eat and drink of course. :)

I rest, eat and drink for >99% of my non-school day :p

14 free periods a week ensures I have enough time to get homework and study done for the moment :)

~40 minutes, mine is over 5 days only. Shiteload of extensions (well, only 3, but still) which means I get to school at 8 every morning without fail.

Meh, doesn't matter. I'm having fun at school for the first time in ages.

"The Sun Beat..." Of course, it'll probably change. It already has about 12 times...
