I am working on the year-end perks for my K-fans. Here are the poetry series currently available as collections. Arts and Crafts America is new this year!
Poetry in Microfunding:
There is one open epic at present.
"Celebrate and Cherish" belongs to Polychrome Heroics: Mallory. Heron and Mallory begin to explore local schools for Dairinne.
The weather has been mostly moderate. It rained again. Seen at the birdfeeders this week: a large flock of sparrows, a large flock of mourning doves, several dark-eyed juncos, several cardinals, a downy woodpecker, and a squirrel. I hung the old suet feeder near the new one. The woodpeckers and sparrows have rediscovered the old one, but not the new one yet. If they don't figure it out, I will tilt the new one vertically and then lower it slowly.
