ysabetwordsmithThese are some posts from the later part of last week in case you missed them:
Sunday Yardening
Hurt/Comfort Bingo Card 7-16-16
Thursday's Yardening
Hard Things
Monkeys Use Tools
This week's Creative Jam went well. You can read about what I wrote, and the poem somebody else wrote for me.
The poll is currently open for you to vote on favorite themes for the Poetry Fishbowls later this year.
There will be a bonus fishbowl on Tuesday, July 19 with a theme of "anything goes." Mark your calendar so you can give me prompts!
Poetry in Microfunding:
"Holding Hope and Love" belongs to Polychrome Heroics. Cheersquad gives Zima some ideas for helping Lakia. "A Hope and a Promise" belongs to Polychrome Heroics and has 5 new verses. Aidan and Saraphina wrap up in the Wood Room. "Bearers of Witness with Justice" belongs to Polychrome Heroics. Aquariana and Irene support Steel and Moderato through the trial of the Japanese whalers.
Torn World writing update:
Approved as canon: "Unicorns on Parade" "Spruce Deer" "Wandering the Heights" (poetry). Back to me for edits: "Winterheart" (parts 2-3), "Stinging Like Nettles" "Off the Clock" (poetry). Currently in front of the canon board: "Ghost Bat" (nonfiction). Drafted: "Like Ash Before the Wind," "From Dark to Bright," "The Inappropriate But Useful Disposal of Lettuce" "A Thin Red Trail" (fiction), "Changes in the Wind" (poetry), "Southern Breads" "Tangleweed Article" (articles), Jularei (character sheet). In revision at home: "Water Dance," "When the Wind's Teeth Sing," "Raining Kittens," "Finding the Holes," "Broken Hopes," "Brewing Beauty," "Little Paws in the Licenses" (fiction), "The Smallest Invaders," "Raising the Future" "Beach Pies" "Unsolid Ground" "Riding from the Rescue" "To Ride Death" (poetry), "Rammer" (nonfiction). Currently writing: "Catch of the Day," "A Cold Clear Night" (fiction).
The weather has been warm and intermittently wet. Currently blooming: zinnias, petunias, marigolds, million bells, moss rose, pansies, comfrey, echinacea, morning glories, yellow coneflowers, Queen Anne's lace, chicory, Shasta daisies, coreopsis, milkweed, blackberry lilies. Large blackberries are at their peak. Crabapples and apricots have green fruit. I found a Cope's gray tree frog in my office last night, and carried him outside.
