April Plans (2022)

April Plans

This month is busy, in good ways!

7th :: I host ysabetwordsmith’s Poetry Fishbowl Linkback. She handles prompts and I provide the cheering section, posting a verse from a poem she’s written and selected. One verse per digital shout makes it easy and fun to participate.

11th :: Magpie Monday will open on Monday, and remain open to prompts (one story per reader’s prompts) until near midnight on Tuesday 12 April. The theme isgood communication. A story will be posted from prompts finished on Monday for everyone to enjoy on Tuesday, and full details will be in the announcement post.

25th, 26th, and 27th :: Feathering the Nest returns! Unlike Magpie Monday, the only consistent theme is gentle fiction. I hope that readers will suggest what they want to read, and each reader can prompt for a new story each of the three days set aside for this. I’ll post a quick reminder each day that the prompt call is open.

As usual, I’ll post a summary report with thumbnails for each finished story, and links to the posted ones. (Tuesday the 12th, Tuesday the 26th, and Wednesday the 27th will all offer new stories for everyone to enjoy.

Tuesday, April 5.

I have written down the other dates. Are the extended dates to allow people more time to reply, or to post prompts on multiple days?

I was even using a calendar. SIGH.

Okay, will fix in my notes and announcement.

Magpie Monday-open 48 hours, one prompt fill per person.

Feathering the Nest- open three full days, each person can offer a new prompt each day.

The logic being, one is themed, while the other is more general "cozy fiction."

That'll work, as long as you specify for each call what its parameters are. I can copy them when boosting the signal.
