And so it begins ... Darcy's postcard challenge 2012. The first country that Darcy has chosen is Austria so we need to weave this country into our story of postcards. I have no idea where this is going to go but I've started with a postcard from a non-human which reads ...
"So ... I arrive here to discover you've left already. You humans have such little faith. Still, I've not been here before and it is a most interesting place. Do you know what a sewing machine is? Well apparently this machine was invented here in 1814 by a human called Josef Madersperger. An odd looking little machine, hardly a machine at all. I will await your contact". The postcard is signed off in a signature that looks more like runes than letters. The postcard is sent to Isabel Crombie, Belle Cottage, Beach View, Lamorna, Cornwall UK TR19 55Q
Want to know where the story goes from here? I will be posting every two weeks (not every week as most people are doing). My postcard from Austria is inspired by Gustav Klimt who was born there. His most famous painting is "The Kiss".
