[WP] I'll never forget the day the stars fell...	I'll never forget the day the stars fell. There were sharp jagged pieces that cut my cheek and chin. They sliced at my arms and hands as I brought them over my mouth. I swallowed what didn't cut me. Swallowed until my belly was full and my teeth ached like bullet wounds. They say I jumped into the mirrored doors ...	3	33	41,779
[WP] I'll never forget the day the stars fell...	For i'll never forget the day in which the stars fell. As my eyes gazed upon their glory, my heart only sank thinking about what was to happen next.

[WP] I'll never forget the day the stars fell...	I'll never forget the day the stars fell. I spent 20 minutes hanging them, so neatly around the room. The cat couldn't resist the little glittering decorations, and of course they were made of something delicate and breakable. I glared at Popcorn. His stupid face oblivious to my anger. I had spent seventy-five dollar...	2	33	41,781
[WP] I'll never forget the day the stars fell...	I'll never forget the day I first saw her stars, cutting through a haze of cold smoke, steamy breath, and her soft blonde hair that cascaded down her head like a bridal veil on a cold October morning in the courtyard of our office. It was then that I knew that I loved her. But her eyes were focused on the distance, wh...	2	33	41,782
[WP] I'll never forget the day the stars fell...	The Captain shook off the dust from his jacket. We all watched, shocked, at how slowly the particles floated to the floor. "Well, it's happening...", the captain said in a somber drawl. Mothers held their children close. The lovers shared long embraces. The drunks even brought out the nice whiskey. It was the kind ...	2	33	41,783
[WP] I'll never forget the day the stars fell...	I'll never forget the day the stars fell... Is this the beginning or this the end? Two men, they were standing there, hopeless, against a back drop of blood red streets, stained in forsaken, forgotten souls. I can see it. There's a soft white glow slowly moving towards me. As it eclipses the thousands of fallen bodies...	1	33	41,784

[WP] I'll never forget the day the stars fell...	Even though the ground beneath our legs was cold, the corn stalks still radiated heat from the day. Their leaves and silk a warm tickle against our skin. The stars hadn't started to fall yet. They peak at three, Miss Lapp had said. So we gazed and craned our necks. A few had torn across the sky already, some she hadn't...	2	33	41,787

[OT] x information for fiction building.	Could you be more specific? General non-fictional details? I don't think writers have a source for that. Best bet would be to go to the sources.	1	5	41,789
[WP] "When I took this job, I didn't expect there'd be so much paperwork."	"Sure, I thought there'd be technical details to make note of and things like that but, really, this much?" I pointed to a precariously perched stack of papers and manila file folders standing nearly a foot high. "I mean, shouldn't the paperwork just sort of ... take care of itself?" With a deep, heaving sigh I rea...	4	15	41,790
[WP] "When I took this job, I didn't expect there'd be so much paperwork."	I must not have been blinking as I stared at the computer screen, by my eyes’ burning when I finally looked away. I leaned back in the deteriorating comfort of the desk chair and thought about rolling yet another joint and opening the window. No, I had to stay focused, had to get the entrance plot recorded. I hazarded ...	3	15	41,791

[WP] "When I took this job, I didn't expect there'd be so much paperwork."	"Well, it's health and safety, innit?" said my new mentor, peering into the insides of his sandwich. "Health and safety?!"

[WP] "When I took this job, I didn't expect there'd be so much paperwork."	You can’t really know what to expect when someone asks you if you want to become God. No, not a God, or the God of Something, but the Alpha and the Omega- the sunshine and the sunset- the light and the darkness. I had to build it all from scratch, which made things nicer, I suppose. I tried plenty of models before...	2	15	41,794
On the New Years Eve after their 22nd birthday, everyone swaps body with their soulmate for 24 hours.	In a bright-faced comic book shop somewhere in Southeast Texas, a red-headed gym rat thumbed through a trade paperback of Final Crisis and turned to his best friend, a rotund man with black hair and a nasty stubble.

On the New Years Eve after their 22nd birthday, everyone swaps body with their soulmate for 24 hours.	Drew groaned under the covers as someone pounded on his bedroom door. Way, way too early in the morning. His first thought was the date. December 31. New Year's Eve. It happened every year. January 1, a body comes into the coroner's office. Bullet in the brain, rent flesh, stab wounds, you name it. For the last...	22	41	41,797

On the New Years Eve after their 22nd birthday, everyone swaps body with their soulmate for 24 hours.	Joy had always annoyed Gregg like no one else could. They lived two doors down from one another.
