Submissions Guidelines |
World
Haiku Review currently takes submissions of poetry, essays, graphics, and
editorials for consideration from members of the World Haiku Club (WHC) only.
An exception to this guideline would be renku and linked verse in which at least
one participant should be a WHC member, and the WHCrenku games. At this time, we
publish guest works by special invitation.
Please
review our pages to get feel for what kinds of works we accept for publication.
WHC and its magazine, World Haiku Review, promotes high quality, innovation and
permanent values within the various schools of thought and will consider works
in which those characteristics are apparent.
Readers
who wish to submit works for publication in World Haiku Review may do so by
applying for membership to WHChaikuforumworkshop,
our flagship haiku mailing list, or any other group within the family of World
Haiku Club mailing lists on the YahooGroups list servers. A mailing list
offers the opportunity to communicate with poets worldwide through means of
shared internet e-mail postings.
Member
submissions to World Haiku Review will be considered for publication in upcoming
issues. There is no payment for authors at this time. All copyrights revert to
the author upon publication, however we reserve the right to republish (in hard
copy format) items from the web site in the future.

For
those wishing to become members of WHC through our YahooGroup family of mailing
lists:
A
convenient feature of YahooGroups mailing lists is that a subscriber may
elect to receive e-mail posts by group members in one of three ways:
1.) Individual e-mails: posts
are received one by one as any other e-mail.
2.)
Daily Digest: all
the day's posts are received in one bulk e-mail.
3.)
No Mail/Web Only: no
e-mail is received to the subscribers e-mail program. Instead, the member
accesses the mailing list homepage on YahooGroups where he may view the
"Message Archives" which contain up-to-the-minute postings. He may
also elect to post messages from the website.
When
one subscribes to a WHC mailing list, a brief letter of biographical
introduction by email to each separate list owner email address must accompany
the submission. An automated questionnaire will follow subscription to a list.
Our mailing lists are private, meaning that subscription depends upon approval
by the list owner. Our message archives are private and accessible by members
only.
Please
find the WHC family of lists with their descriptions on the World Haiku Club
website's "Mailing Lists" page. Our lists are specific to WHC's
supported poetry genres, schools and activities. You may subscribe to as many or
few lists as you wish:
