Poetry Fishbowl Report for May 3, 2016
This month's theme was "schooling vs. education." I worked from 1 PM to 5:30 PM, so about 14 hours 30 minutes allowing for breaks. I wrote 9 poems on Tuesday and another 8 later in the week.
Participation was moderate, with 34 comments on LiveJournal and another 41 on Dreamwidth. There were no new prompters this month.
