Poetry Fishbowl Report for Tuesday, October 7, 2014

Dec 01, 2014 02:00

This is catchup from what I missed earlier.

The theme for October was "mad science."  I worked from 1 PM to 4 AM, so about 13 hours allowing for lunch and supper breaks.  I wrote 11 poems on Tuesday and another 9 later in the week.  There were plenty of epics but a reasonable mix of shorter poems too.

Participation was okay.  We had 26 prompters making 38 comments on LiveJournal and 39 on Dreamwidth.  There were no new prompters.
