Polychrome Heroics Pool

[fuzzyred]

This week, ysabetwordsmith is having a half-price sale in Polychrome Heroics. I will be running a pool this time around, if anyone is interested in joining me. I will have a list of targets below, but anyone who is contributing to the pool can name a target and the pool will do its best to purchase that poem as well. I will close the pool sometime on Saturday so that I have time to collect the funds and forward them to ysabetwordsmith for Sunday.

I'm having a hard time picking targets, since I'd be happy with pretty much anything from the Shiv, Rutledge or Trichromatic Attachments threads, but I'm going to prioritize the best I can.

Your list looks a lot like my list, especially the top of the Trichromatic Attachments sequence and "The Queerest Profession". I've been busy with the variouses and the sundries, so hadn't checked in yet. I was also inclined to start the Solace sequence if there was enough action to warrant it, but it doesn't look like it. Maybe another time.

Anyway, "The Queerest Profession" and "The Refusal to be Victimized" add up to $309 at half-price, so $154.50 at quarter-price. Split that evenly, and it looks close enough to $80 for that to be a good amount to put me down for. I'll keep an eye out for more action

Sweet! With my personal budget, that leaves another $70 or so for me to play with, so I'll check what falls within that range on our list and go from there.

I'm going to be busy today, so I sent the funds on to Ysabetwordsmith already. I decided to finish out the Trichromatic Attachments thread, as well as picking up "The Queerest Profession," because with your $80, the four poems add up to only $16 over my original budget, which is doable for me. Thanks for joining in!

Sounds good to me. Thanks for setting things up. Looking forward to the results.

No problem. I was going to advertise the pool more, but the week got away from me. "The Queerest Profession" is up though, and it's absolutely awesome, IMO. :D
