Instead I'm a purse-aholic as purses always fit, and they're always comfy. <br /><br />In my current WIP, one of my protags is a convicted murderer, the other a high school history teacher. Truth be told? I think they're living vicariously through <i>me</i>. :)<br /><br />Congrats on the release of DEADLY RECALL, Donnell.

For about 4 years, I put MILES on my shoes and then...not a bunion but a broken ankle! Had to wear a cast for 6 six. When the cast came off, my heels were a thing of the past. Now I confess to being a sandals sort of gal...even in the winter. My toes live to be free!

I hate it, but age and injuries have necessitated it, . I do get my thrills with high wedges - for some reason, I can do those. So, I get my feeling sexy in with my wedges. I have never been a sneaker wearer unless exercising - even as a kid, I never wore sneakers in public - until the high-top Reebok craze. I had those puppies in tons of colors. Hubby got mad once because I wore pretty shoes all around Disney World and ended up having to ice my feet at the end of the day.
