Crowdfunding Creative Jam

The Crowdfunding Creative Jam is now open on Dreamwidth and on LiveJournal.  This month's theme is "families of choice."  Come give us prompts or claim some for your own use.

Among my series that feature families of choice are Hart's Farm, One God's Story of Mid-Life Crisis, and Schrodinger's Heroes.  New ideas are welcome too.

From My Prompts

"Recovering from abuse by finding a better family" is a bittersweet little story by [personal profile] sharpeningthebones about the slow process of becoming kin.  It belongs to the series No Child Is Spared.

"A Thousand Words for Mother" by [personal profile] thesilentpoet belongs to The Scholar's Mate series.  It speaks of family lost and found.
