Also called Subordinating Conjunctions, WWUBBISAAA is a great way to expand a sentence by explaining information at the beginning of a sentence.  These introductory elements are also great to use when you don’t know how to begin a project and you just need to get a story or an article started.

EXAMPLES:  (from The Man Who Walked Through the Sky)

As soon as he stepped off the wire, the police abruptly put him in handcuffs and took him to jail.

When Petit was released from jail a few hours later, he shared his story with the press.

While sitting in the dentist’s office, he came across an article about the World Trade Center.

Although his tooth continued to throb for days afterward, Petit was happy to have found his life’s dream.

NOTE:  You can use the WWUBBISAAA move to create impressive rhythm in your writing.  See how it works HERE.
