Calling for poems from all haiku girls

Submit your haiku/senryu here: https://forms.gle/248UWoENQ8zUaYfN6

Guidelines

  1. Please submit 3-5 haiku.

  2. Submissions close on August 30th, 2023.

  3. Please use a seasonal referent (kigo) in your haiku.

  4. Take risks with your seasonal referent. I will google whatever I do not understand

  5. Please do not use the word "summer" in your haiku. The goal is to connect to the season without naming it.

  6. I welcome haiku/senryu of 1-3 lines, as well as experimental forms.

  7. Unpublished haiku only, please. I define "published" as appearing in any print or electronic blog, journal, or newsletter. Haiku published on personal social media is eligible.

Housekeeping Information

  1. Poets are welcome to submit once per month for the duration of HGS (June, July, and August).

  2. I will publish haiku based on thematic groupings rather than order of submission.

  3. All submitted haiku will stay on file until August 31st, 2023.

  4. I will notify you whenever one of your haiku is slated for publication.

  5. HGS is a nonbinary- and trans-inclusive project. All haijin who identify as girl/woman are welcome to submit.

  6. Selected poems will appear on the HGS public site and email list.
