Hello @kemmyb. Thak you so much for visiting. I appreciate your lovely compliment for my freewrite story. Yes, Sarah Josephine was a brave young lady in spite of her harsh treatment by people who used her for their own gain. My favorite part of the story was when she knocked Madam down and the ground cried. Madam's just due. Although she should have been arrested for running a house of pleasure on the backs of young girls.
Sometimes all that is needed is a kind word to install faith in one's self that courage is there. I hope that Sarah J. can find a new life. I have a feeling she will locate the pastor who stopped to give her a kind word and show her another way.
Thanks so much for your thorough analysis of my story. I appreciate it, your engagement, and your support. Take care.
