Years ago, the magic of the library helped Richard Tyler overcome fear, nor did his peers thinking him odd for always having his nose in a book bother him, yet as he headed into high school, he did find himself wishing for a peer who could also see the magic of the library. Vada Margaret Sultenfuss on the other hand, wants to become a writer while seeking a way to escape her family situation. As she writes her romance story, she doesn't expect to meet Romance, let alone the way her story would twist the magic of the library.
Disclaimer - I don't own The Pagemaster or My Girl. This is being written for ONC 2024, prompt 60, "The magic of the library takes its toll - a love story so powerful that its echoes span eternity. But as you write, you fall in love with the character you've created. What happens when the line between fiction and reality begins to blur?"
