Can Spring

Be Far Off? 

  

I sincerely hope this Bulletin finds you all in good health. The winter has been long and unpredictable, especially for those living in more northerly climes. I cannot say I have seen any definite signs that spring is on its way, but I continue to hold out hope.

In the meantime, I have little to pass on to you this month aside from the reminder below from Charlotte Digregorio.

Take good care.

Contests

  

Dear Members,


Please log onto our website, www.hsa-haiku.org, check out the contests, and enter! We have contests for haiku, senryu, haibun, renku, students' haiku, and published books. Please follow the guidelines closely. I have been receiving some entries that have not been correctly submitted. Please reread the guidelines before you submit anything, to ensure that your entry is not disqualified. And, please adhere to strict deadlines.
 
I am delighted to report that we have expert judges and poets who have graciously agreed to read entries and select winners. You may be confident that your entries will be carefully and intelligently considered.

If you have any questions, please contact me. For the Mildred Kanterman Memorial Merit Book Awards, please send materials directly to Mike Montreuil, First Vice President, as stated in the guidelines. 

Thank you.

 
Charlotte Digregorio
Second Vice President
