The attic was a gold mine. He was cleaning it, tossing decades of junk, but he was also finding treasures. Daniel had always dreamed of being a writer, and was finally getting around to chasing his dream. The sun streamed through the dusty windows, illuminating his workspace. He had the first chapter of his novel almost finished. He needed inspiration and wanted a blast of pure energy. The volume on the stereo was up.

The angry pounding of knuckles on the door was his first warning. Mrs. Bell, his landlady, stood there, her hands on her hips. "Mr. Peterson! The noise! You are disturbing the peace!"

He grinned sheepishly. "Almost finished, Mrs. Bell! Inspiration is key!" He shut the door and returned to his writing.
