The story was required to have a cover sheet depicting the title and Jordan’s full name as well as page numbers at the bottom of each page. These instructions she had followed perfectly. As she slid the 25pg (or so) document into the crisp yellow envelope, her heart beat with anticipation. The requirement stated that it must be postmarked that day – Thursday, November 15.
I wonder what will happen? Is this the beginning of something big for me? Will they really like it? She thought.
Another deadline was upon Jordan that Thursday afternoon as well. As soon as she and her Mother were to drop the thick envelope off at the post office, the very next stop for the pair was the sleep lab at the University of Washington Medical Center.
