DailyHaiga Journal will Launch on Wednesday,
July 1st, 2009
Best Wishes
Linda Pilarski
I hope you will be
interested in this new journal.
Haiku and haiga enthusiasts will have an opportunity to
explore these forms in a new way, with the launch of
DailyHaiga, this coming Wednesday, July 1, 2009.
DailyHaiga is an edited online journal of contemporary and
traditional haiga, available online at
http://www.dailyhaiga.org Following the format
of sister publication DailyHaiku (
http://www.dailyhaiku.org ), this journal will present
a new piece each day from one of their contributors.
Those new to the form will find that haiga moves beyond
the boundaries of written verse—pairing haiku with an
image that expands or juxtaposes the moment explored in
the haiku.
Over the next few months, DailyHaiga will feature work
from renowned invited artists, including: an’ya, Susan
Constable, Billie Dee, Lary Fraser, Allison Millcock,
Sakuo Nakamura, Linda Papanicolaou, Carol Raisfeld, Ray
Rasmussen, Emily Romano, Alexis Rotella, and Liam
Wilkinson.
The site features sophisticated archiving and search
functions with easy navigation between current and
previous haiga. DailyHaiga also syndicates content, and is
available through your favorite RSS or Atom feedreader at
http://www.dailyhaiga.org/rss/
General submissions will open on July 1st. Guidelines for
email submissions can be found at
http://www.dailyhaiga.org . In addition to new haiga,
we will also consider haiga that pair new images with
previously published literary components (e.g. haiku and
related poetic forms). We will not consider haiga that
have previously appeared online in any form.
