Poetry Fishbowl Report for March 5, 2013
Our theme this month was "houses & homes." I worked from 11:30 AM to 2 AM, so about 12 hours 30 minutes, allowing for breaks. Prompts were slow to come in, but picked up eventually and maintained through most of the day. I wrote 23 poems on Tuesday and 1 more later.
There was only one form poem this time. Most of the poems were combinations of two or three prompts. There were two size clusters at medium-long and epic ranges.
Activity was down on LiveJournal (42 comments) and up on Dreamwidth (21). A total of 23 people sent prompts. Please welcome new prompters polydad, rosieknight, and DW user adeliej. You have them to thank for the second freebie.
