Poetry Fishbowl Report for Tuesday, January 6
This month our theme was "Earn Your Happy Ending." I worked from 12:45 PM to 6:30 AM, so about 15 hours 45 minutes allowing for lunch and supper breaks. I wrote 12 poems on Tuesday and another 7 later, with a variety of lengths.
Participation was up this month. There were 56 comments on LJ and another 24 on DW. A total of 26 people sent prompts. Welcome new prompters DW user Curiosity, Martha Rochat, Andrea Rochat, and Ross Edwin Rochat. You have them to thank for the second freebie.

If you plan to sponsor some poetry but haven't made up your mind yet, watch for the unsold poetry list from January 6. That will include the title, length, price, and the original thumbnail description for the poems still available.
Currently sponsored poems from the January 6 fishbowl have been posted. Prompters have their backchannel copies. Per the $200 goal, "Carnival Candy" was the free epic. Per the $250 goal, that's three tallies, so there will be a bonus fishbowl in mid-February. Per the $300 goal, there's a half-price sale in Polychrome Heroics.
The donor post has not yet been written. This month's donors included DW user Chordatesrock, ng_moonmoth, janetmiles, Anthony and Shirley Barrette. There were no new donors.
