RE: The Menu

in The Ink Well2 years ago

One suspects that when this young lady receives her order, she will no longer be comparing waitresses, or anyone else, to talking skeletons. One suspects that with this very wise order, the young lady will regard those around her with greater benevolence.

What a clever story. So well told. In a way, a twist on the classic 'three wishes'. Be careful what you wish for...

Your description of the characters is entertaining and vivid. You capture the voice of the customer: naive, critical and determined. You do a wonderful job with both the prompt and the targeted skill.

Thank you for sharing this most original story with us and thank you for supporting your fellow authors.
