This sounds like the start of a fantasy book, and the unusual sight makes the reader stop and relect as to the how and why as well as about the meanng and significance. Best wishes for your entry.

You did a good job with that first sentence, and you followed it up with an equally intriguing first paragraph. You definitely made me want to find out what happens next. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Neon green snowflakes--yes, that would definitely rouse curiosity. There are so many questions, but how do you find the answers? Well done? My idea: Stay inside and let someone else find out what they are.

Good thing it's only for a first paragraph because I haven't a clue why they're green-LOL! Thanks so much!
Comment from lancellot
Hmm, now that is an eerie opening line. It is one the fills the mind of the reader with questions and they try to solve the mystery of what this green snow-like substance is. Perhaps it is toxic. Good entry. And Nice touch with the green font.

Comment from RodG
I like this sketch. It's creepy and makes me edgy, knowing something like this is possible. But the pace is S-L-O-W. Your first sentence is way too long, thus dragging us into the story. I'd break it into three sentences. Read your story aloud and LISTEN. What words can be trimmed to pick up the pace?

Welcome
Comment from zanya
This is a good opening paragraph with a 'hook' to draw the reader into the ensuing action and fits the fantasy genre - the detail in the color description adds to the mystery.

I like this story. Very imaginative as I read the first sentence. I wanted to keep reading. Very good writing. Good luck in the contest.
