100 exact word count
By Ami (Gypsie) Offenbacher-Ferris
Friday fictioneers is a weekly challenge set by Rochelle Wisoff Fields to write a 100-word story in response to a photo prompt.
The place was massive! I had to lean my head all the way back to see the ceiling and the bookshelves went that high!
The quiet wrapped me within its embrace. Long tubes of flickering lights bathing everything in a warm, yellow color and oh the smell! The delicious aroma of aging paper covered by miles and miles of ink forming words, forming stories. Bindings creaked happily, opened by my willing hands. I could read! My brain rejoiced! Letters turning into words, turning into sentences that turned into paragraphs of beautiful word-smithing.
Heaven! I had made it to Heaven!
