Pixel-stained Technopeasants!

As you may or may not know, it was just recently International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day, when all the pixel-stained technopeasant wretches post tasty, tasty free samples of fiction and poetry and goodness knows what all.

I haven't actually looked at anything linked from there yet, but only because there was too much other good stuff just sitting there in my friendslist! So here are the highlights, which those of you who are also totally overwhelmed by choice may start with, because they are very good. And those of you who have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about can also start with them, because they are, as aforementioned, very good.

1. An untitled pantoum on poetry, by elisem.
2. Snow Widow, a hard-boiled winter fairy tale, by kip_w.
3. Everlasting, queer fantasy from rosefox.
4. Everything I needed to know about life, I learned from my cats, which is not in fact pixel-stained or technopeasanty at all, but which contains both good advice and cat stories, from the always interesting but not usually this work-safe tacit.
