The City of Books Part 3

Urgh. Another boring weekend.
Although, I must say, the weather today is absolutely stunning. Perfect running weather! Which is just what I did earlier this afternoon. The sun was bright but not too warm, there was a slight breeze, and the sky was blueblueblue. I wanted to go sailing, but since I haven't actually done any sailing since summertime, I think I've forgotten most of what I learned.
I wish I had more time to practice that kind of thing; sailing, snowboarding, skating, etc. Every season I get a hang of it, then lose it over the rest of the year. Pretty sad to think I'll only ever be in beginner classes...

Anyway, here's the next part of the story. I don't even know if anyone's reading this stuff but oh well, I promised I'd post it and so I am.

The City of Books Part 2

Here's Part 2!!

Edit: I've decided to post a picture of a city in each of the remaining City of Books posts (there's only like, 2 left). I think Jett's world is a combination of these pictures. I just can't find one picture that would adequately describe his world.

Elsa sighed. She didn’t mind rain generally; she liked the clean smell it brought. But not today. The rain pelted down mercilessly on the wide, clear windows, and angry clouds hung in the sky.

The City of Books Part 1

It's been a long time since I posted... a belated Happy New Year to everyone. I think I just got lazy and didn't feel like writing much over the break. Besides, I had to write a Macbeth script.

Well, I finally decided to put up the short story I wrote back in October or so. It'll be in chunks. This is the first part.

Now that I read it again it seems a little weird and juvenile...but I've always dreamed of a place like this. Please comment! Thanks.
