“You can always look to Herman Melville for inspiration.”
How true, but you can’t start EVERY book with, “Call me Ishmael.”
Melville had spent literally days, writing and re-writing that first line, polishing it until it gleamed like a newly-cut jewel!
"Call me Arnold."
"Call me Bill."
"Call me Charlie."
"Call me Derek."
"Call me ..."
