I did a black out for the Craft Fest in March and I made a 2x2 bingo card for April. I'd planned to do a bigger bingo card, but that changed.

Go you!

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.

I'm currently setting up my bingo card. Any posted stories which fill a square will be announced here.

For the National Crafting Month Fest I only got a single fill - I made a digital collage for my Wildcard based on an event that occurred in the TTRPG Wise Women game I'm running. It was fun to create, even if digital media isn't really my forte.

For April I intend to write. But I'll see how it goes! Life has exploded in good and negative ways the last 2 weeks and has me all discombobulated!

That sounds cool.

My sympathies. Sometimes, writing can be a good way to relax and refresh.

The plan for April is basically a camp nanowrimo project: 30 flash fiction pieces. The main plan is the untranslatable words bingo, filling 16 days. The other days filled with a mix of other long-term bingos I'm working on.

Go for it!

[ysabetwordsmith]

Those sound promising.
