Holiday Half-Price Sale

fuzzyredThis week there is a half-price sale for all (or most) of ysabetwordsmith's available poetry. I have a bit extra to spend this time, so I can go around the $200 range, and I am willing to run a pool if no one else wants to. A pool would net us the quarter price rate, so everything would be even CHEAPER and we could buy more poems. I don't think we could buy out the whole sale ($1915.50 at quarter price), but we could probably make a sizeable dent, if people want to join the bandwagon.
Below, I have listed my first four targets, along with all of their information, in case anyone is interested. This leaves about half my budget free for whatever strikes someone's fancy, though with no outside input I will tend towards the Polychrome Heroics poems.
So, if anyone has any ideas or input, let me know, and we'll see if we can buy lots of poetry!
First round targets:
HART'S FARM
"Inside, Outside, on the Floor"
At Hart's Farm, people often seek partners from outside.
54 lines, was $20, sale price $10, quarter price $5
SHIV
"Pie Day"
Story Date: Saturday, March 14, 2015
The Finns celebrate Pi Day.
364 lines, was $182, sale price $91, quarter price $45.50
"Mending the Broken"
Story Date: Wednesday, February 10, 2016
Summary: Still shaken up from the kidnapping attempt, Shiv turns to yarn as a calming method. It helps.
308 lines, was $154, sale price $77, quarter price $38.50
ARTS AND CRAFTS AMERICA
"A Gentle Whisper"
Story Date: 1961-2011
President Bob Ross.
214 lines, was $107, sale price $53.50, quarter price $26.75

>>OK, I'll open with my initial targets, mention that we're after $100 to buy the Big One thread, and are looking for enough to fund one or both of the big Shiv epics with a $125 head start. And if not enough comes through, why don't you pick the one to open?<<
That sounds good to me. I'm hoping we get lots of interest, or maybe even some people who are interested in things other than Polychrome Heroics. Some of the other threads look quite intriguing, though Polychrome has kind of stolen my heart.
I will keep an eye peeled for your post, and if I get any interest on my end, I will direct them your way, to keep everything nice and neat.
