Author’s Note: I’m On Tinywords

I somehow missed this earlier in the month in my Twitter feeds, but way back on January 6, tinywords published a haiku I had submitted. The haiku debuted here on August 17, 2010.

Tinywords is edited by the well-known poet Dylan Tweney, whose wise words I have posted here previously.

Yay, me!

Pen to Paper: Practical Haiku

Dylan Tweney is (among other fascinating things) a popular modern haiku poet. You can read a few of his haiku at his Tinywords site.

Below is his slideshow, “Practical Haiku: How Reading and Writing an Ancient Form of Poetry Can Change Your Life.” This is a nice introduction or re-introduction to haiku, showing us in haiku-like brevity the value of this form of poetry. Enjoy.
