Planning An Introduction

There are many different techniques to start your article that vary depending on the topic and audience of the piece. 


One is the anecdote intro, which is uses a short account of some interesting humorous experience to get the reader interested. 
For example:

Ever not able to start a new book because you're still stuck in the story-land of the last one? Happens to us at 'Books R Us' all the time, we all get so invested we can't stop worrying about the characters well after the last page has turned? But why do we find them so alluring?



Another way to start off an article is the quote intro, using an outstanding phrase from someone mentioned in the article or something relating to the topic. 
For example:

"They help me get away from the real world". Books are more than just a hobby, they are a release from everyday life. When you get stressed or sad, they will always be there for you.
