Sunday Picnic

Sunday, every Sunday, let's have a community picnic. It's probably been a long week, and it's lovely to have a few minutes to sit back and relax and enjoy some good conversation in a less formal space. Feel free to bring something for the Picnic Basket - a poem you liked this week, a thought you had or something you experienced, or even something completely unrelated to poetry whatsoever that you just feel like sharing. Just take a moment to say hello, and maybe have a bite to eat; no one is going anywhere fast, and the shade promises some relief from the everyday heat. Let’s get to know each other a bit better, here under the branches of the poet’s tree.

The half-price poetry sale this week covered the series Fledgling Grace (that's the one with "The Wingdresser's Kitchen"). All the first batch got sponsored plus a few extras since, so go check it out.

Also my poem "Breeding the Perfect Fighter" is up on Torn World.
