Advice on writing fiction
#3
I'll post more later, but I want to echo what Pix said: the intro has to be a hook. if an editor's attention isn't grabbed by the end of the first page (three if they're nice), it's done. Also, watch out for then Boom! then "Twelve hours earlier" type of beginnings. Those have been very over played of late.

I haven't written fan fic at all...
