"Cattle arrived healthy and get along well with my own. They moo in a heavy Russian accent that has my herd perplexed, but I figure a little mystery is good for them. My best to Elena. Sincerely, D.K. Miller."

THE FAUX POSTE PROJECT
Frankly, I'm not sure where I'm going with this, but I think I'm onto something. I'm creating fictional postcards, sometimes the story is on the card, sometimes the story is about the card. Most of the elements on the cards are things I've photographed or have created myself. Occasionally I'll use copyright-free elements, but for the most part, they're all my own stuff. I'm including the "back story" for those of you who are interested in the overall process. It's fun for me, and I hope you enjoy reading the stories.
If you have any thoughts regarding what I can do with this idea (maybe a book?), please let me know. Truly, I'm kind of floundering. In the meantime, I continue making the cards, writing the stories, and having fun. — Carol Leigh
