DailyHaiku - A Daily Shot Of Zen

April 05, 2009

We are thrilled to announce our new contributor team, selected from a record number of excellent submissions. The new contributors are (in order of publication): Catherine J.S. Lee, Greg Schwartz, Richard Krawiec, Patricia Benedict, Robert Moyer, and Megan Arkenberg. Congratulations to our new team; we think you'll be as excited as we are when you see their work.

Also online is a new special feature by Ray Rasmussen: Special Feature 5—Modern English Language Haibun. Ray's article gives both background and insights on the haibun form, and shares some of his recent work (text and audio).

Lastly, we are happy to welcome to DailyHaiku our first Invited Poet: Frogpond editor and a founder of Haiku Canada, George Swede. Each cycle, we will invite a different poet to help kick off our new contributor team with a week of brand new haiku; we are honoured to have George as the first poet in this series.

We hope you enjoy the new cycle!

Wishing you a Zen-like spring,
Patrick and Nicole—Editors, DailyHaiku
