Which Shoe is Your Writing Wearing?

Sometimes my writing feels as if it's wearing these...

But many days, it feels more like it's mucking about in these...

There are those comfy days when it's wearing these...

or even these...

And the wonderful days when it wears these...

or these...
Then there are the days when I slog along wearing these...

and even some when it's wearing this...

But I dream of the days when it will wear these...

Or, more precisely, when can wear them!

  1. Yup, this sounds about right! Love the heels in the last picture, though I wouldn't be able to walk in them, LoL. Three-inch heels is my limit!

    Hope you're having a great week, Elspeth!

    1. I hope you're having a great week as well, Laura. I dream of the day when I can afford a pair of Christian Louboutins - although Manolos would do! :)

  2. Elspeth - I am always in awe of the metaphors you come up with for writing. Of course, I write mysteries, so sometimes, my writing wears those police-issue shoes....

    1. *blush* Thanks for your kind words, Margot - you put me in awe too! I like your idea of police-issue shoes for mystery writing. It's got me thinking, what sort of shoes would all the different literary sleuths sport? Hmmmm....

  3. Ahh, those Louboutins :) I'd most likely break both ankles, but it would be nice to try.

  4. Gone are the days when I could maneuver in stilettos. Honestly, I do not miss those days.

  5. I'd be well over 6 feet tall in the stilettos, so I'll pass on those...ha! Great analogy, Elspeth!
