Revealing the tales

Now: it's that time where it's neither yesterday nor tomorrow. About an hour past midnight- difficult to tell which time you're in. It's all at once very late, very early.
Cinderella is about to trip over her glass slippered feet in attempts to catch the last pumpkin bus home.
Brief interlude query glass slippers - bit dangerous eh, Miss Cinders? Shoes filled with magic, heels that could break into shards and stab your foot. That old fairy tale instance where girls put fashion above comfort.

So - I'm thinking, whilst tiptoe balancing upon the today-tomorrow cusp: I should upload a couple of postcards each day to this blog. Each day a new storyteller, a fresh pair of shoes brought to life by people, pens and postcards.
Or maybe just dump several big loads. A 'Here you go, have some Shoe tales.'
I think the first choice is far more enticing, romantic. So let's do this:

To continue onward from the first ten, here are three postcards. Three.
One for yesterday (10th), one all ready for tomorrow/today (11th) and a third for the melted time of neither today nor yesterday. The time of sleep. The dream time. Enjoy x

So here you are

Salutations and welcome to Shoe tales. Finally here at last, after much procrastination, is a space for stories of shoes to be gathered and shared. Postcards have travelled from as far as China carrying anecdotes of memorable footwear - take a look at them, take a trip into someone else's shoes.
Each story is unique, and also overlaps with those around it - the way these tales are told allow a peek into people's personalities. Shoes are revealing, enticing and ordinary - every pair of shoes has a story, just some haven't been spoken about yet. All kinds of shoes appear here - can you relate to any of these postcards?
Enjoy browsing these doodles and anecdotes. Jump on the Shoetales storywagon yourself - send in a postcard and see it here soon.
