Haiku Northwest News Blog
Haiku Northwest is an active group of poets devoted to haiku and related poetry. It was founded in 1988, and continues to engage leading and beginning haiku poets of Washington State and the Pacific Northwest, but with a special focus on the greater Seattle area. This blog features Haiku Northwest news as well as what’s new on this website. If you have haiku-related regional news items to share, or any comments on news items or this website, please contact Michael Dylan Welch (web manager) or Haiku Northwest. We’d love to hear from you, and to see you at our next meeting (see the Events page).
The following are ARCHIVED blog entries. The blog feature was part of this website on a previous system but is not longer offered on the current system. This blog was active from January 2014 to August 2021. Newest entries appear at the end.
