Posting at help_haiti
I have no doubt that a number of you have already done this, but I've just posted to this thread in ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
help_haiti, auctioning a poem of at least ten lines for a donation (the starting bid is only $5) to any relief organization of the donor's choice. (When I say "any subject," I'm so totally not kidding. I recently wrote about somebody's Asian ball-jointed doll collection, and a National Poetry Writing Month prompt forced me to write a villanelle about robot gorillas. No joke.) If you've not yet done this, and you have the time and energy, it seems like a win all around: the donor gets writing from you; you reach a new audience; and Doctors Without Borders, or whatever other charity, gets one more drop in the bucket to help earthquake survivors in Haiti.
