I bit my lip and I thought about the case.
 Ten years ago a rich, hard-working family found a child (or at least, a youth) dead on their doorstep. They claimed it was 'more mysterious why she wore an orange minidress than if she was alive!' They didn't know she was my sister......

    Hi Grace,

    what a superb story! Some beautiful descriptive language there. Just one thing, it's nevertheless rather than neithertheless. But well done! A brilliant story. I look forward to the next instalment :D

  4. Dear, Grace:)
    I really like your 100 word challange this week, its really discriptive, I like how you said nethertheless I think this is a good connective. Next time, maybe you could add some more punctuation other that commas and full stops.
