A Note to Participants From Judge: This category depends a lot on personal preference. An opening line/paragraph could intrigue one person and at the same time, not intrigue another. I have tried explaining why I was hooked and why I wasn't, so please take the reviews very lightly.
Overall Review: Often beginning a story with one word, two words, a phrase, or something which is not a sentence, is primarily not enjoyed by many (from what I have seen) but over the years, as Literature and Fiction Writing has evolved, so has people's tastes. I appreciate how you didn't hesitate to begin a story with one word. 'Weirdo.' I don't know about others but it definitely made me snort. In a good way, of course. I immediately wanted to read more (which I undoubtedly did) to find the reason why this word was used. You had me hooked so good job for doing that.
Recommendations for Improvement: No recommendations required. The beginning is absolutely alright in my view.
