| The haikai.info | haikai.org (hiho) project, created by haijinx publications, aims to be a premiere clearing house for haikai (haiku, haiga, haibun, renku, senryu, etc) information on the web. The initial content is primarily from Mark Brooks's "Mark's haiku place" on epiphanous.org which is returning to a personal site. hiho now hosts specialized content from that site as well, such as the unofficial newcomer's guide to haiku mailing lists, select contemporary articles on haikai, and the haiku reading group.
In addition to this seed material, hiho contains redirect links for haiku organizations, journals, and other sites of interest. For example, http://www.haikai.info/hsa/ takes you to the Haiku Society of America's web site and http://www.haikai.info/bhs/ takes you to the British Haiku Society's web site. There are many benefits to this system. The most important is that you do not have to keep up with changing URLs (web addresses), we do it for you. While that's true of most "links" sites, hiho creates a direct web address for these sites that will not change even when they move.
Other collections of haikai links are maintained by Mark Alan Osterhaus (Haiku Links), William J. Higginson (open directory project), Michael P. Garofalo (Haiku Poetry: Links and Bibliography), Gerald England (Haiku Links), and Debi Bender (Paper Lanterns).
For mainstream poetry links, please tour the Poetry Super Highway or The Poetry Resource / Patrick Martin:The Web Page.
In addition, here is a list of mainstream poetry journals with an online presence. For the most part, these publications will consider haiku.
Here is information on the Austin International Poetry Festival. Also, the Map of Austin Poetry (MAP) is an email newsletter that not only covers poetry events in the area, but also publishes some international poetry. You can find archives of it at Dream Forge. Those of you in England might be interested in the Bristol Poetry Can.
You can purchase haijinx products through cafepress.com. Not only that, but you can have them create custom shirts, coffee mugs, mousepads, and other items using your own artwork and poetry. |
