Half-Price Sale in Polychrome Heroics
The half-price sale is now CLOSED. Thank you for your support!
This week, the poetry of Polychrome Heroics is on sale for half price from Monday, January 19 through Sunday, January 25. This series is superhero fantasy. It features themes of heroism, coming of age, diversity, identity kink, family of choice, friendship, and cultural engineering. There are 14 poems, was $1134, half price $567. Sale prices range from $7.50 to $80, so hopefully there will be something for everyone. We currently have two epics open for microfunding, both in Polychrome Heroics, which means this isn't the best time to open another one.
Some of the poems are in sequence, so in places there are prerequisites before a poem can be published. They can be sponsored at any time, just might have to wait for publication until something else gets posted first. Those are marked accordingly.
Currently available are the following poems. Some are in series chronological order, and others are just kind of stuck wherever, because sequencing this series is like trying to sequence a dozen different comic book titles from the same publisher. I have fans working on touching up the organization; for now, see the rough draft of the Storyline Guide.
