Types of LeadsSlide4

Dramatic or Surprise Lead

“Mother died yesterday. Or maybe yesterday; I can’t be sure.”

Action Lead

I gulped my milk, pushed away from the table, and bolted out of the kitchen, slamming the broken screen door behind me. I ran down to our dock as fast as my legs could carry me. “Scott!” he bellowed again.Slide6

Imagery or Sensory Detail Lead

Mile upon mile of brown Pennsylvania hills unfolded as I drove in and out of the curves and over the crests of Interstate 70. The world’s worst forest fire could not have caused more destruction - and all because of the gypsy moth.Slide7

Dialogue Lead

“Scott! Get down here on the double!” Dad bellowed. His voice sounded far away.

“Dad?” I hollered. “Where are you?” I squinted through the screen door but couldn’t see him.

“I’m down on the dock. MOVE IT. You’re not going to believe this,” he replied.Slide8

Title Lead

“Seems like everything good that happens in my house happens in my momma’s kitchen.”

In My Momma’s KitchenSlide9

Character Lead

“Some say Leroy Paige was born six feet three and half inches tall, 180 pounds, wearing a size fourteen shoe . . . It would take him eighteen years to grow to that size and about half that amount of time to realize that his hand and a baseball were a perfect match.”

Satchel PaigeSlide10

Mood and Time Lead

Paul CiffordSlide11
