Poll: Free Epic for August 2014

Per the $200 goal, you get a free epic following the August 5, 2014 Poetry Fishbowl.  Everyone is eligible to vote in this poll.  I will keep it open until at least Sunday afternoon.  If there's a clear answer then, I'll close it.  Otherwise I may leave it open a bit longer.


There are plenty of epics available in Polychrome Heroics, and it's a very popular series, so this time you get to pick one of those.

"The Tallest Poppy"
Savoir Faire intervenes in bullying and takes the victim to the Rescuer.
150 lines, $75

"A Walk in the Park"
Stan and Lawrence enjoy an excursion together, and Lawrence turns to Hefty for advice.
(This is a prerequisite for the new poem "Straight as an Arrow.")
344 lines, $172

"Climbing the Family Tree"
Rosita's birth family and found-family try to figure out what is best for her.
(This comes between "Wherever We Find Them" and "All the Colors.")
385 lines, $192.50

"Interchange"
Not all supervillains get along.

Heh. A lot of people are waiting with bated breath for new adventures of Stan and Lawrence! They're just so sweet. I'd happily read any of the others, but... Stan and Lawrence!

I'm thrilled that folks are so hooked on Stan and Lawrence. I really wanted to explore what would happen if the ubiquitous hero/villain misfired slashfest was interrupted early enough to stop being a disaster and turn into a more healthy relationship.

"A Walk in the Park" has some serious parts, but plenty of fluff, and Lawrence is finally getting interaction that does not consist of bullying or fighting. Then "Straight as an Arrow" is lots of fluff, and Stan floundering over some personal discoveries. I think folks will enjoy the ride.
