The Opportunity

By the flickering light of the table lamp sat a young woman silently reading.

I know that I could write a better story than this

The woman thought as she continued her silent reading.

Love in the time of sandwiches indeed.

She thought after reading a little more of book in front of her. 

She had never really cared much for romance novels to begin with believing that they were all to cheesy to hold any real Merritt. 

Still though that never stopped her from devouring any book that she could get her hands on, even if it was terrible.

She was fresh out of college with a degree in creative writing a degree both her parents had decided was a worthless degree, only good enough to land her in a low paying thankless job such as teaching other dreamers.

Closing the book she decided that it was time to do what she had actually come to the library for. She hadn't wanted to tell her parents but she wasn't coming back home. She didn't want to be around all of that negativity. 

There has to be someplace for me to stay

she searched the rentals on the library's tablet. 

I can not go back there

She scrolled and book marked and memorized numbers to every apartment rental that she came across, she didn't have much money to work with and she was hoping that there would be something cheap anywhere.

She had decided to put the tablet down and find a place to live in a more traditional route.

On her way to the library door she saw an old newspaper sitting on the table.

It wasn't the Newspaper itself that caught her eye it was the add on the classifieds that caught her eye.

Bisker's was the company that published her favorite book series and a publishing house for which she had hoped to have her own books published.

Looking at the date on the paper and her phone to make sure she hadn't missed the deadline. The cutoff was today.

Rerouting herself to the nearest computer she searched for the the company and prepared her email for Nori.

She wasn't sure how she was going to word the email but she decided that it both passion and professionalism would surely at least get her an interview.

And now we wait.

She thought with a contented sigh, she hadn't found a place to live but she did stumble across an opportunity of a life time.
