The news felt like a warm bath on a cold day. James was practically skipping through his apartment, his steps light and bouncy. He reread the online publication. The name was wrong, but the story? All his. A thrill coursed through him, making his pulse quicken.

He thought to himself, "This is it, the beginning."
