2795.The dressmaker
© Bruce Goodman 25 July 2023


Josie liked to sew. She was a good sewer. She made most of her own clothes.

She was invited to a candlelight dinner at the neighbour’s. She made the most beautiful dress to wear. Everyone at the dinner was agog. Simply understated and beautiful!

As she brushed past a candle the dress caught on fire. Josie was terribly burned. Many a reader of this blog, knowing that horrible things happen to many a character, will expect her to die.

She didn’t.

Think about it.
