Welcome to My World! [#1564309]
The "Welcome to My World!" sign hangs near a door that is ajar. Come in and look around...

As you walk into the room, your eyes adjust to the dimly lit room. A single tiffany-style lamp hangs from the ceiling; unicorns dance around the glass panels. An old blue sofa leans against the wall to your left. The other four walls are covered in bookcase stuffed full of books and papers. There is a closed door on the opposite wall. Your eyes settled on the large table in the middle of the room. It is surrounded by mismatched chairs. In one of those mismatched chairs sits a red-headed girl hunched over a tiny blue laptop. Hearing you come in, she glances at you from the corner of her eye.

"Welcome to my world!" she squeaks. "Grab a book off the wall and settle yourself on the couch. Or if you feel like joining me at the table, I have lots of paper and pens." She motions to the notebooks and pens scattered about the table. She then points to a large journal in the center of the table. "If you're not sure where to start or want to know what I've been doing lately, then I suggest taking a look at my book which I have self-titled 'Tootin' My Horn!' Enjoy!"

As you step closer to the table, you see the cover of the journal.
