BellaOnline Forums Career Fiction Writing Where does the story start?

Hi All - I'm starting a discussion topic to get people talking. On your current story, where did you start? That is, did you start with an action sequence, with description, with internal dialogue, with external dialogue, etc. And why? How do you see your story growing from the angle that you chose?

I started with an action sequence. I am writing a novel about pro wrestling and started it off like a Rocky movie. Where Rocky is in the ring fighting, I started it off with a wrestling match in progress and almost at the end of it.
