FARM REPORT

This is the Foot Farm and toes are our passion. We soak them, scrub them, and rub them. We apply lotions, scented oils, paint them and adorn them with flowers and jewels. Our lovely toes take us wherever we want to go and never do they question why we want to go there. Look down at your tootsies and contemplate just for a moment your life without them. Think of the splendor of being able to feel wet sand sliding beneath the soles of your feet on a warm beach. Would you miss sticking them softly into furry slippers, pink stilettos or sexy silver sandals? What good would 150 pairs of shoes do you with out the toes our workers here on the foot farm treat with so much tender loving care?
This is just to remind you to always take great care of your lovely toes. Love them no matter what. Flex them and wiggle them often. Take a nice long bath and put them up on the edge of the tub, wave at them and blow kisses. Thank them for bringing you to every moment of bliss and pleasure that you have ever enjoyed. Cover them with bubbles, lather rinse and repeat. Dip them in warm peach paraffin or cover them with scented sea salts. Thank them every day for being the incredible instruments of lovely transportation that they are. If you ever for an instant think that you can do with out them think again. Our manager would like to remind you that we live to pamper toes. We deem them the most perfectly formed part of the body. If you think our work frivolous and unimportant, we ask you think for one moment if you lost those pink painted toes. If they fell off one day never to be found again. If you woke one morning and they were gone forever. Bring them to us faithfully and let us file clip and rub them. Most of all never ever take those ten little piggies for granted. Our color for the week is Bunny Nose

FARM REPORT

The Foot Farm would like to invite all writers to the first season of Story Survivors. We will be holding write-ins across America and choosing thirteen lucky scribes to move to the farm. Once here they will be required to move into bare housing on the Foot Farm and work along side our workers learning to harvest toes like pros. There will challenges to overcome.
Who writes the best first person short story where the main character is involved in a life threatening situation with a bottle of nail polish? Eliminations will be heart wrenching, judging will be brutal. Thirty days of writing until challengers’ brains are spewing smoke from their nostrils. Housed three to a room they will have only one dictionary between them. No PCs or Macs only a manual portable Smith-Corona typewriter, onion skin paper, four number two pencils and one pencil sharpener.
The judges will be brutal yet honest in their critic. There will be tears, emotionally charged arguments and retribution when plots are mysteriously leaked. A romance will develop between two of the challengers. One challenger plots against the other writers by stealing their onion skin paper. Somehow it will come down to the final four writers. . Whose story will be chosen? Whose adverbs will reign supreme? The Foot Farm will become wildly popular and workers will have trouble keeping up with the demand of visitors who want to visit. Get ready, writing samples are being submitted and the lucky thirteen are being contacted to bring their ideas to the Foot Farm. Our color for this first season will be “Scarlet Starlet
