gs_silvaHey hey look! It's something neat! It's the Poetry Fishbowl!
In whichysabetwordsmith invites prompts, and writes poetry from the prompts, and crowdfunds the poems. It's an audience participation speed poetry event! And if you prefer storytelling and fantasy and worldbuilding over regular ol' poetry, you're in luck. Those are exactly the things ysabetwordsmith 's poems are about.
Check out this one: Refusing To Melt.
It's about Maurice and Cathy and their differing culinary traditions. Living in the US with Vietnamese or French tastes inside them, and living with each other.
Toss a prompt in if you feel like it. What interests you about world cuisines? Peruseysabetwordsmith 's shared/open worlds, which you can find by following the first link in this post, and request specific characters in a specific situation. Or offer a more general prompt. And donate if you can, to fund more poetry.
This is the third one I've participated in. I hope to give more donations in the future. Right now my financial focus is on my friend in crisis, but I believe in funding the arts.

I think I'm pretty easy, though. I don't care at all if people break canon, if they're saying something that they want to say.
Just popping in to see it is cool too! I did that for the first couple, until I felt comfortable chiming in.
