A Change of Clothes
reposted with permission from author Steven E. Wedel
There's a secret about the clothes we wear, known only to dry-cleaner/launderer Walt Higgins. When that secret reveals something sinister happening in the town, Walt takes action against it.
(V's Note: Doe and I have talked about this one for ages--some of us remember it from Y!Groups reposts long before MM or even A.CF existed, before I was doing any writing or illustration of my own. When I was gathering all our old author materials for the site redesign and regathering permissions for works that aren't mine, I found this short in my 'horror' stash, listed under "author unknown". With a little searching, I was able to find Steven's name in a literary compendium called Great Beginnings where Steven's opening line for A Change of Clothes was cited as a fantastic example of an opener that leaps right onto the back of a moving story. I was able to email Steven and ask his permission to repost this great short here, and he graciously approved. Visit his Amazon page for more of his work!)
