CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS











The New System: Submissions on an On-going Basis (There is no deadline)

THE WORLD HAIKU CLUB: WORLD HAIKU REVIEW VOLUME 6, ISSUE 1, expected to be out in April 2007

Notice from Acting Editor-in-Chief


Re: Call for Submissions — Comprehensive Columns List (all sections)


Dear Kuyu,

A new system has been introduced whereby submissions are received on an on-going basis. This means that there is now no deadline as such. The next issue of WHR, Volume 6, Issue 1, is expected to be out in April 2007. When the submissions reach a certain level, they will be edited at the discretion of each of WHR's various Editors to be published in the April issue. The works not included will be considered for the following issue.

Submissions must be sent to each of our relevant Editors. For instance, if they are senryu you must send them to our Editor in charge of senryu. The list of these Editors and their submission guidelines (same format to all sectors) are set out after my notice in alphabetical order. They look complicated but they are not. So, please do not be daunted or put off by them.

We wish to continue to endeavour to present a unique magazine which, while deeply rooted in tradition, is full of new ideas and innovative features. It will continue to aim at the highest standards and top quality as before.

Please find in the following index the sectors you are interested in. Send your finest works to the Editors concerned whenever they are ready to be submitted.

Also, please take a look at the current issue of WHR if you have not done so already: http://www.worldhaikureview.org
Kengin to all,

Susumu Takiguchi
Managing Editor and Acting Editor-in-Chief, World Haiku Review
Chairman, The World Haiku Club

[ 9 ] HAIBUN and ESSAY submissions: Editor: Ray Rasmussen Email: Ray@Raysweb.net

GUIDELINES

1. WHO CAN SUBMIT: Submissions are open world-wide to readers of the World Haiku Review online.

2. SUBMISSIONS: Poets may submit 1 original haibun (see below).

a. Contemporary haibun come in many forms. We want to publish haibun that show a variety of these forms.

A basic element in most contemporary haibun is haibunic prose. Haibunic prose has many of the characteristics often associated with haiku:

present tense (and shifts of tense though predominant voice "present");
shortened or interesting syntax;
limit joining words (conjunctions), such as "and";
a sense of "being there"
rich descriptions of places and people
remembrances written as if being lived now;
and above all "brevity"

b. haibun with haiku - usually only one haiku but some people prefer more - this should link by association to the prose:

the haiku can either summarize the feeling or tone of the prose, but not repeat it;
or the haiku should carry on beyond the end point of the prose;
In short, just as haiku often contains an element of juxtaposition, so does the relationship between the prose and haiku.

3. ESSAYS and ARTICLES: Poets may submit 1 new, original essay on topics of interest to poets of haibun. There is no limitation on essay length at this time. For essay submissions, include your brief biography, footnotes, and an introduction to yourself and your work as related to poetry. Articles and news of interest to haibun poets may also be submitted. Send manuscripts separately. (BOOK REVIEWS & PUBLICATION NEWS MUST BE SENT SEPARATELY TO SUSUMU TAKIGUCHI)

4. Works in non-English languages must be accompanied by good English translation, which will be used for selection purposes.

5. Single-space prose text and haiku, and left aligned, unless special formatting is required.

6. Include your name (and nom de plume, if applicable); Surname in capital letters (EX: John BUNYON; Sara Elizabeth JAMES; Tatsuo SUZUKI, Susumu TAKIGUCHI;
Include your country of residence and area within country [state, province, territory,etc. (if more than one, please include all).

7. Please use HTML formatted e-mail (not "Plain Text" or MS Word format). Please type your text, poems and manuscripts directly onto the body of the e-mail; do not copy and paste your text into the e-mail from a word-processing document.
