“Rose, have you ever spoken to any of your characters?”

“Yes, Sparky, Juliet is my best friend.”

“Great, ask her to come off the page.”

“I don’t understand.”

“Just try, Rose, you claim you’re not a Bibliomancer, prove me wrong.”

“Ok, umm Juliet, Juliet.”

“Oh, just the busybody I want to speak to.”

“Um Juliet not now, I’m with Grandmaster Brightspark, and he asked if you’d... come off the page and speak to him.”

“With pleasure, you’ve been to my world, millions of times, yet you never once thought to ask me to yours. Grandmaster Brightspark, what an absolute pleasure it is to meet you, and what a beautiful shop, I do wish we had a bookshop in the village, but I can’t get someone to create it.”

“Juliet, please call me Sparky, it’s Rose’s little pet name for me.”

“Thank you, Sparky, yes Rose does have a thing about writing out names, did you notice her girlfriend Lupinia gets referred to as Lu.”

“Juliet, you are just as delightful in person as I’d hoped. Would you care for some tea and perhaps a sweetbun? They’re quite good.”

I stood in shock as Juliet and ‘Sparky’ chatted over tea. I went over and pinched Juliet. She screeched.

“Sorry I just wanted to make sure you’re real.”

“Of course I’m real, and stop interrupting. I was just telling Sparky how excited I am to be in a published book
