I've started writing a book (just for fun), but I'm having trouble deciding where to start it. I narrowed it down to 3 options. Which one do you think would be the best opener?
Just for some background-The story is set in a boarding school. There are 5 main characters, 3 male/2 female, ages 9-17. They are students at the school and live there full time. The two oldest boys are the only main characters shown in the beginning.
1. During sports practice, the two oldest boys goofing off. Practice ends, and they change and are walking back to their room. As they walk it quickly describes the school and shows a little bit of the two characters. That night in the dorm the conflict starts.
2. The two boys running through campus to get to morning class, as they are running late. They goof off but make it in time. The day goes by quickly, describing the school and showing what everyday is like. After school they go to practice, were the conflict starts. (does not then start at the first opener)
3. The two boys are on a bus back from a sports game. The team won, and are celebrating on the way back. As they drive back through the campus it describes the school briefly. When they arrive on campus the conflict starts.
