O.O

News that is not really news to me, because I know myself; I may have bitten off more than I can chew. I like organizing things, and I like seeing things finished, and I LOVE reading stories. However, when trying to index the incredibly lovely stories of two very talented (and FAST) writers, you quickly end up with a massive backlog of work if you have not been doing it from the beginning. Ah well, chipping away one story at a time is the only way to go, and I do take a certain pride and comfort in knowing that it is more complete and up-to-date than when I started.

EDIT: On a side note, if I were to provide a list of stories (with dates posted if not the link itself), would anyone be willing to aid in checking the Broken Angels timeline? The first bit has been done by ysabetwordsmith but there are some stories by dialecticdreamer that didn't get included in the original batch, so I'm not sure of the timing. Have the sequence before hand is handy, because then I know which poems to write up first, BUT checking all those stories for placement is going to take me awhile.

Signal Boost

There is a Half Price Sale in Polychrome Heroics this week. Boost the signal for the sale, and you can reveal a verse in one of the linkback poems.

I am willing to run a pool this time, if anyone is interested in joining me. I have about $80 this month, though I do have a little extra as back-up if it's needed. All of the poems are awesome, and I don't know where to start, so the target list this time is more of a wish list. If you are interested in contributing, simply let me know which poem you are interested in and I will direct money there. And as always, if you just want to join the pool for the quarter price discount, and you can pay for all or most of your poem, you are free to pick any poem you like.

Target/Wish List
*"The Paramount Importance of One’s Fishing Companions" Sale price (SP) $71.50, Quarter price (QP) $35.75
*"The Mother of Trees to Come" SP $78.50, QP $39.25
"Often the Beginning of Great Enterprises" SP $104, QP $52

I know this is giant list of poems, but I really am having a hard time deciding. And if you have your heart set on a poem I didn't list, just tell me; all the poems are great this time. I can get two or three poems on my own, depending on which ones I choose, so exact picks will be influenced a lot by other pool interest. Let's buy some poetry!
