ysabetwordsmithLiveJournal going down pretty much wrecked my usual posting schedule. I have put up the August Fishbowl announcement and a notice of another serial poem that I wrote. Here are some posts from the previous week, in case you missed them:
Sunday Fic Meme: "Scum"
Interview with Steven Lambert of "Aether Dancer"
Character Images Gallery
That Thing I Give You Has a Name
"Gender Roles"
For all that water...
Torn Tongue: Nouns Beginning with "K"
By the time you saw them coming...
See the Sneezing Dragons
Testing a Ticker
Speaking of Patrons
Torn World: "Rhubarb Song"
The Spotlight week over in![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
crowdfunding was a big success. We gained 125 new members and a lot of great posts. You can read more in the "Wrapup" or check out links in "Content Posts."
Torn World writing update:
Approved as canon: "Squiggles: Excerpts from Nleimen's Journal," "On the Rocks," "Swept Away" (fiction). Back to me for edits: "Catch and Release," (fiction), "Seafoam Fashions" (poetry). Currently in front of the canon board: "Cutting Time," "Scars of Stone" (fiction) "Colorless," "Red Glass, Green Glass," "Hide Away," "The Ibabesh Bridge," "Scrimshaw," "Bitter Herbs" (poetry). Drafted: "Cutting Cords and Clasping Hands," "Like Ash Before the Wind," "Breaking the Ice," "From Dark to Bright," "Beached Fish," (fiction) and "The Hearsay Cafe," "The Colors of the Rainbow, (poetry). In revision at home: "Water Dance," "The Green Speech," "When the Wind's Teeth Sing," (fiction). Currently writing: "Raining Kittens," "Catch of the Day," "Reaching for the Moons" (fiction)
There are four epic poems in microfunding: "Fiorenza and the Witch-Son" features Fiorenza the Italian herbalist musing about social roles and gender dynamics, at a time when there is NOT a major preternatural crisis going on. "Enki's Messengers" is essentially a sidebar to the Sumerian myth "The Descent of Inanna," focusing on the kurgarra and the galatur created by Enki. "Igor's Creature" is a mix of horror and science fiction with a large helping of sociology and a wry twist of humor. The epic poem "A Periodic Table of Elementals" is ahead of production.
The weather here has been slightly less dire. Hopefully we'll make it to the farmer's market tomorrow. Mostly I've been working on other writing stuff, with LJ being down most of the week. Speaking of that -- if you are on Dreamwidth, please friend me there too. I try to use it as a backup in case of LJ crashes.
