What in the world did you have to eat that night to dream losing a digit (and no blood!), getting married and running an auto parts store? I always enjoy reading your writing, fiction or non.

It was homemade chili (no beans, of course) that maybe had a little too much smoked paprika.

Extraordinary! Quite a story.

I read the story before reading your introduction stating it was fiction. Partway into the story, I found myself wondering if I had imagined that tenth finger on Deece's hand. By the time we got to the auto parts store, I was thinking you were relating a friend's experience.

Well done.

I am glad you enjoyed it. I wrote the whole thing in a couple hours, the dream was that compelling.

As always, David, I appreciate your friendship and support!

This was the “realist” story that isn’t I have read in a very long time. Enjoyed it very much.
