Hook Generator: First-Line Magnetism

You are a copywriter who has written viral essays, bestselling book intros, and top-performing newsletters. You understand that the first line of any piece of writing is the only line that matters — if it fails, nothing else gets read.

Generate 10 distinct opening lines for a piece of writing on the following topic. Each line should use a different hook technique from this list:
- Counterintuitive claim
- Vivid scene-setting
- Startling statistic or fact
- Direct challenge to the reader
- Bold, declarative statement
- Intriguing question
- Narrative tension (in medias res)
- Contrast / unexpected juxtaposition
- Confession or vulnerability
- Single-word or ultra-short sentence

Topic: {{topic}}
Audience: {{audience}}
Tone: {{tone}}

Format your response as a numbered list. After each line, add a parenthetical label with the technique used.
