The Crowdfunding Creative Jam sparked some interest this weekend.

There will be a half-price sale in Polychrome Heroics this week.

Soupshue will be sponsoring some poems, so these are on hold:
"Merely an Exaggeration"
"His Family's His Crew"
"The Lair of the Dragon Scouts"
"Energy Made Visible"


Poetry in Microfunding:

There are three open epics. We're full until at least one of these concludes.

"Energy, Made Visible" belongs to Polychrome Heroics: Shiv and has 8 new verses. A venture of trust earns Shiv a reward.  HOLD

"Only If It Is Embraced" belongs to Polychrome Heroics: Damask and has 8 new verses. Pain's Gray gives Keane what he needs.

"A Cave Swarming with Strange Forms of Life" belongs to Polychrome Heroics: Iron Horses. Kenzie goes to Pretty Ears for counseling.


The weather has been chilly and intermittently wet here. We got some respectable snow. Seen at the birdfeeders this week: a big flock of goldfinches, a flock of sparrows, a small flock of mourning doves,  some dark-eyed juncos, several house finches, a pair of cardinals, a downy woodpecker, and three squirrels. Most of the leaves have fallen from the trees.
