Holiday Poetry Sale!

This week, [personal profile] ysabetwordsmith is hosting a Holiday Poetry Sale. It includes all the poems from 2022 at half price, with quarter price option available if you spend $100 or more. It's a great opportunity to get lots of poetry, since many of her series have poems available, and I will be hosting a pool so more people can take advantage of the quarter price rate.

My budget is much higher than normal this time around, so I will be going after a lot of targets. If you see something on my list that you want, let me know and I can direct your funds to that particular item. If they all sound good, you are free to say "just add it to the pool" in which case I will send the money where needed and work on getting as many poems as possible. Both options free up more of my money to purchase additional poems. Alternatively, if you want something that isn't on my list and you have money to give, you can name the target of your choice and the pool will help you finish it if you can't afford the whole thing. This can be especially helpful if what you want is out of range at half price and doesn't get you to quarter price discount on its own. And if we reach all our goals, anyone contributing to the pool is free to suggest what poems they would like to see as stretch goals.

Without further ado, my massive target list:
(For simplicity's sake, I'm only going to list the quarter price values)

Main Targets
Arts and Crafts America (6 poems) $59.50
Daughters of the Apocalypse (2 poems) $17.75
One God's Story of Mid-Life Crisis (1 poem) $20
Schrodinger's Heroes (1 poem) $26.75
Iron Horses (1 poem) $46.50
Kraken (1 poem) $43.25
Marionettes/Finn Family (1 poem) $33.75
Officer Pink (1 poem) $30
Trichromatic Attachments (1 poem) $72.25
"Basic Source of Peace" (Rutledge) $46.50
"The State of Perfect Stillness" (Rutledge) $67.25
"Anything You Want It to Be" (Shiv) $58.25

Secondary Targets (I am leaving these for now in case there are low budget shoppers, but I will pick them up if they are available at the end of the sale.)
An Army of One (1 poem) $12.50
Darrow poems (set of 5) $6.25
Eloquent Souls (1 poem) $8.75
Not Quite Kansas (1 poem) $11.75
Stand-alone poems (3 poems) $8.75
Dr. Infanta (1 poem) $8.25

Stretch Goals
If there are more funds, I would like to grab the other two Shiv poems first, then work of the Rutledge thread that starts with "Clothes Worth Wearing," then work on The Big One thread. The order of these targets is flexible, depending on interest and exact funds, but this is where I'm leaning at the moment.

I hope you decide to join the fun, and any amount is just right!
