It sounds like they wouldn't notice if she even had hands. Can you imagine having people stare at you everywhere you went? Maybe you can but I sure can't. Great alliteration. Gretchen

Comment from barbara.wilkey
This contest entry introduced me to a new word, sleight. I had to look it up. I always look forward to increasing my vocabulary. Thank you for that and for sharing this contest entry with us. I enjoyed reading and the alliteration. Good luck with the contest.

I love finding new or forgotten words too. Flibbertigibit is a good one. It means a whimsical person. One who is often neither here nor there. I have to use it somewhere! Thanks for the read. Karen
Comment from T B Botts
Hello Karen,
this was a rather entertaining story. So is she just a sleight of hand person or is she someone who can push the sale of Trojan's, or both? It would possibly be safer for her to become a model, though there wouldn't be much excitement or adventure in that I don't suppose. Well done gal. Good luck in the contest.
Have a blessed day.
Tom

Some had to have "Trojans " explained to them. This was fun to do. Thanks for the read. Karen

I wish I were so innocent.

I wish that people practiced making love and quit just having sex. :-)

Hello Karen,
well, that's a novel idea. Unfortunately, the values that once prevented a lot of promiscuous sex have eroded, and apparently its become something that is expected from anyone who dates. All the benefits of marriage without any of the responsibilities.
I see you've dropped your last name. If I address an envelope to you, do I use a different last name?
Comment from Begin Again
Is that Karen Cherry...or maybe Cheery (our Miss Sunshine). It probably feels good to drop some of his baggage... You go, girl!
And Grace left some baggage behind, too. She changed her name, her face, and her profession... Get those rich guys gazing into her emerald green eyes while she picks their pockets. Nice twist.
Smiles, Carol

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Lol, you have excelled here, Karen. So, if I go and smash my whole body up, will they redesign it the way I want it to look? Like, nothing going south anymore, but upright and perky!? LOL I can't imagine what they would be looking for if not her hands, slipping unnoticed inside their pockets! All those Gs, a fabulous lot of aliteration that didn't in the slightest way seem forced. Well done, my friend, and good luck in the contest. Love and hugs, Sandra xxx

It would be all day surgery for me! Thanks for the read. Karen

Well, you should be so lucky, they would take one look at me and tell me to go home. They haven't got a whole year to spend on one patient!! 😂🤣

You look pretty good to me sweetie. Rain again tomorrow.

Comment from Cecilia A Heiskary
Karen,
Good morning my friend. I am very confused by this story. You might need to dumb it down for me. It is well organized and seems to flow nicely for beginning to end.

Greta changed her name to Grace after the surgery. She looked ordinary before, now look at her picture. And, because she looks so beautiful the guys look at her face and not her hands. Thanks for the read. Karen

OH, see I told you I was dense.LOL

I have to explain some stuff sometimes.i can forget that what I know in my head is not available to everyone.:-) Karen
-
See how you are, you snot.
-
My sister Kathy called me a snot. I put my dirty underwear in her drawer. Just so you know! :-)
-
You are a mean girl. I knew it. :)
-
Me? Mean? :-)

Yes, you. That's why we connected. LOL
Comment from Jesse James Doty
So, Grace got into a car accident and had plastic surgery to change the way she looked and she chose green eyes to go along with becoming a gorgeous redhead. It helped her bring in the compliments as well as the money because she is a magician who uses sleight of hand to win the money from unsuspecting men who are amazed at her drop-dead gorgeous looks. A well-written flash fiction with a twist at the end.
Good work.
Jesse

You're welcome, Karen. I noticed you dropped your last name from your pen name, good choice, good decision.

Yep, I am me again. :-)
Comment from Tim Margetts
I like this tribute, Karen.
I thought at first you were in full alliteration mode. It sure seemed it.
But, that's a hard ask to keep up for a one hundred words flash.
You have, however, created a remarkable flash bringing this wonderful actress to the fore.

I thought about all G's but, it would have bogged down the flow. Thanks for the read and and nice review. Karen
Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Having a gorgeous face is handy for a sleight of hand artist.
You're back to the alliteration you love so much, using it to describe a beautiful creature before using your own sleight of hand to inform us of how ugly she is on the inside.
Good luck in the contest.

Thanks for the read. I don't think of her as ugly on the inside, just crafty. When everyone knows you are doing a trick, are you really tricking them? Karen
Comment from karenina
Whoa. I can no longer think of you as "KCT". --
When did you drop Threadgill?
I get why...I just have to stop in and have my brain adjusted.
(smile)
G g g g g good little story...
Your Trojan line is hysterical!
Hmmm.
Can I guess what they were looking at instead of her hands?
Hah!
I hope you're doing well.
I hate winter.
Flowers please!
