The Faux Poste Project

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

Love in Paris

I knew they were trouble the moment I laid eyes on them. Their sidelong glances, their velvet, pearls, and lace. They whispered softly in French that I couldn't understand, but wanted to hear more. Mother warned me about Paris. Luckily, so did Father. . .
