WHChaibun - Editorial Page


Notes from the Editor
Paul T. Conneally
Charnwood, UK

 

This edition we have haibun from what are now becoming regulars and some new contributors. I have not selected on the basis of a particular style or theme this issue - perhaps that appears a little lazy for an editor - well maybe - but I thought to leave myself out a little and let the haibun that seemed to surface to the top of my mind remain there without too much analysis and revision based on my own particular kind of haibun dogma.
 
I'm pleased to be able publish an early "rediscovered" haibun from marlene mountain very different from much of her more recent work but recognisably marlene! The style of this haibun engages me and puts me there with marlene and her new neighbour as each starts to make sense of the other through their different interactions with the things of nature.
 
I hope that you enjoy the selected haibun and feel inspired to try one out of your own.
