If you’re finding it hard to get going on your work this morning, as I am (I think it’s because today is the first real autumn-feeling morning here, where the bed is sooooo warm, inviting lingering, and my house is soooooo chilly), you may enjoy this time-waster: quiz yourself here on which of these first lines of famous books you recognize. Either you’ll feel smart and inspired, or you’ll feel like a dope who’s permitted to loll in bed a bit longer.
(I think I remember first reading about this site on the fabulous literary blog, Maud Newton.)
