Cinderella’s Shoe Blogfest

Don't worry GUYS this isn't some Girlie-Chick-Lit thing!
So Cinderella loses a shoe that is recovered by the Prince and restored to its rightful owner, all ending happily ever after. Babette Cole did an updated version, 'Prince Cinders', where Cinders loses his jeans.

YOUR CHALLENGE is to write max 500 word piece or a poem about any character who loses something that when found by another results in their mutual happiness/relief/salvation/ Or whatever.

This is just the prelimary announcement to get everyone's creative juices flowing.
The linkey for those who want to join in and play will be posted up nearer the time, so that those who want to participate can link directly to their blogfest item.

    Love the glittery shoe there. I'll see what I can do, but this month is crazy so I can't promise.

    Let me ponder this one. I'd sworn off blogfests for a while, but don't ever believe me when it comes to writing fiction.

    All in! I think I have just the right excerpt from my WIP for it too! YES! Though... in just 500 words it may end up being like a teaser trailer... and finding this particular thing (in my story) leads to terrible consequences... EVEN BETTER! Can't wait!
