The Passageway

This will be the first installment of my short story:

Emma awoke to find the sun shining brightly through the open window, the wind blowing gently, and the birds singing praises of the beautiful weather.
Only yesterday the intelligent, good-natured girl had discovered something she never dreamed possible.  After an upsetting conversation with Mother, she had walked into her room and violently slammed her belongings down on the desk.  Just like that, the bulletin board hanging on the wall in front of her had come crashing down to reveal a long, dark passageway, just the right size for a twelve year old girl to wiggle through.  Now a problem presented itself: Should she tell someone, or just start crawling.  
Always the adventurer, Emma chose the second option only after a moments consideration...

Nice start! However, remember that one of the criteria for blogs is quantity: to get an A, you are expected to post more than 3 entries per week, each on a different day. Check Vista for your grade.
