Something I Wrote
I always wanted to be an author, but I didn’t start writing until I had graduated from college and got my first job as a librarian. At first that job was only supposed to last until I found a job at a publishing company. Three years later I had applied for a few hundred jobs at different publishing companies and had only ten interviews. I never really fell in love with being a librarian, but it had benefits and let me stay around books all day, which is what I really wanted. It also allowed me to join my very first book club (I know that sounds odd, but I just never seemed to be able to find one that I liked). It was life changing. One dreary day in early spring, the time when it’s too drizzly to wear shorts outside and too humid to ever put any effort into your hair. Nobody was coming into the library at that time (they must have decided that cafes were a much warmer environment). I was so bored I started to write this story that had been in my head for month...
