LITEROTICA'S ALL-TIME BEST HOOK.
(notes: A list with the complete opening lines follows and SHOULD be in order. I'm a good Democrat--vote for more than one if you feel so led. Votes will be private. None of the ten are mine.)1. She stood at the microphone, waiting for her cue, worrying a cigarette and gripping the mike stand like a spear.
2. She was going to hell. There was no getting around it—do not pass go, do not collect $200, she was going straight to hell without any little orange "Get out of hell free" card.
3. "In the quiet, backwater system of Halderon IV, the old war horse had been put to pasture."
4. "The letter arrived three days before Christmas, blown in on a bleak Oklahoma day by unkind fate."
5. She was amused when semen started showing up in her art — semen as an image in her poems to describe the stars that spread over the ocean at night, or in her paintings in the thick paint she used to show the foam of the breakers that surged around the rocks at the base of the lighthouse.
6. "Okay, boys and girls," The producer said over the studio intercom; "We got that one down cold. It could be your next hit, Tracy. It's a big rocker!"
7. Hello. I want to tell you a story. I swear to you it's all perfectly true, which of course is a promise that means absolutely nothing coming from a fictional character like me.
8. Russell had a fetish. I blame his parents. I mean, really... what were they smokin' the day he was born? They named him Russell Leeves? In my opinion, that was just asking for trouble.
9. Yeah, I fucked her.
10. "Seaman third class Angle Bentley was fucking the Commodore's wife in the fantail on the fantail."

This is your chance to vote for LITEROTICA'S ALL-TIME BEST HOOK. It will, of course, decide nothing, nothing I tell you, except possibly which opening from among those submitted to the, Great Literotica Hooker's, thread, and then selected as a finalist (by me), has been chosen by those AH denizens who bothered to vote, as being, LITEROTICA'S ALL-TIME BEST HOOK.
Yes, I know, it's all just a bit too whelming.
In what will be, no doubt, a vain attempt to make the poll more about the words and less about the writers, all identification has been removed. That said, anyone interested can get all that at the original thread, https://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?t=522360

Who's the greatest Lit hooker. That is to say, which Lit writer does the best job of crafting openings that "hook" the reader into sticking with the story. Well, truth be told, the winner of the mythical title of, LITEROTICA'S GRAND CHAMPION HOOKER has already been decided by popular consensus. Any contest would have been just a battle for second place.
Therefore, I now name:
BlackShanglan
-- LITEROTICA'S GRAND CHAMPION HOOKER --
-- LITEROTICA'S GRAND CHAMPION HOOKER --
Here are a couple examples why:
Will, by BlackShanglan
I was not made as others.
Scould's Bridle, by BlackShanglan
"Go ahead. Touch it."
There are many, many more.

MllledelaPlumeBleu, is one of the best writers at Literoctica. The following opening is too unconventional for use as an example, but too brilliant to ever be ignored. Therefore, by the power vested in me by little ol' moi, I hereby recognize:
MllledelaPlumeBleu
-- FOR OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN LIT HOOKING --
-- FOR OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN LIT HOOKING --
Here's just one reason why:
1762, or 'A Monk's Progress,
(Recorded by the pen of Brother Andre Boulin des Barres, Lyon, 1762)
"A Monk's Progress"
They called him Julian the Saint.
Not that he was chaste.
