ow was she to know that a black cat would cross her path, just as she walked under a ladder? She tripped and the mirror she was carrying crashed to the ground. If only she hadn’t stood on the cracks in the pavement on Friday the 13th. As she nailed her upturned horse shoe to the wall, she hoped that - touch wood (the door jamb in this case) - this and her new brass elephants with trunks stretching upwards would help neutralise the seven years' bad luck she had coming...Today why not write about a superstition that fascinates you?
For example: never leave shoes on a kitchen table.
She pulled out the grey hair, mumbling that she didn't believe in silly superstitions about five grey hairs growing in its place. So when three grew back the very next day it didn't worry her because the number was wrong...Tell a tale about a superstition in the past that you remember or were told about.
More Write it on Wednesday
