The Most Dangerous Man in the World

A whole lot of "water is wet" observations, but I do admire the precision of analysis in listing specific actions of #45 and why they are troubling.

Read "Capable of Stretching"

I posted "Capable of Stretching" to Dreamwidth last night, but it didn't echo to LiveJournal, so you'll have to read it there.

Half-Price Sale in Polychrome Heroics

Today is the last day of the half-price sale in Polychrome Heroics, so if you're still planning to buy anything, now's the time. 

So far I have sold four poems.  Three of those have been posted.  "A Moment of Atonement" hasn't been posted yet.  There are also two poems in a pool, the Iron Horses entries "Come Out of the Darkness" and "Sheltered and True."  Contact ng_moonmoth if you are interested in contributing toward those.

Lunar Tunnels

 Tunnels have been confirmed on the Moon.  While these make a promising site for settlement, I would prefer to make sure there are plenty of them before wrecking the first one we've found.

Poem: "TERF Wars"

This poem is spillover from the July 4, 2017 Poetry Fishbowl.  It was inspired by prompts from Dreamwidth users Sweet_sparrow, Curiosity, Kengr, Dreamwriteremmy, Siliconshaman, Mdlbear, Fayanora, Dialecticdreamer, Stardreamer, and Callibr8.  It also fills the "make a list" square in my 7-1-17 card for the Winter Fest in July bingo.  It belongs to the Antimatter & Stalwart Stan thread of the Polychrome Heroics series.

Poem: "Feel the Might of Creation"

This poem is spillover from the September 5, 2017 Poetry Fishbowl. It was inspired by prompts from technoshaman and dialecticdreamer. It also fills the "learning how to be loved" square in my 7-31-17 card for the Cottoncandy Bingo fest. This poem has been sponsored by mama_kestrel. It belongs to the Damask thread of the Polychrome Heroics series.

Warning: This poem is all about childbirth, in rather graphic detail. If that's a touchy topic for you, please consider your tastes and headspace before reading onward. Also, hankie warning for anyone prone to crying over happy scenes.
