haiku dropped from the sky as rain
Upper Rubber Boot is still doing the free giveaway of 140 And Counting over at Goodreads. I’ll be randomly selecting up to around 50 people from the entrants and sending them a free copy. To enter, you’ll need a Goodreads account (which is free), and then just follow the instructions at the giveaway page.
140 And Counting contributor Stella Pierides took part in the Spring Poetry Rain event on the 26th of May in the divided city of Nicosia, Cyprus, where two of her haiku dropped from the sky as rain; her flash ‘The Silence in my Cell’ appeared in Tuck Magazine on the 1st of May; one of her tanka appeared in Take Five: Best Contemporary Tanka Anthology; and one of her haiku appeared in the 4th of May Asahi Haikuist Network, ‘From the Notebook’ section, along with Helen Buckingham.
Finally, the Locus Online Roundtable is doing a series of posts on including, most recently, Marge Simon‘s “Speculative Poetry” (URB editor Joanne Merriam also got a call-out in F.J. Bergmann’s “The Invisible Prominence of SF Poetry“).
