I am proud to say that the haiku (and its related styles) community has grown tremendously since I first came to Deviant Art. For me, events such as the Haiku-thon are crucial to this growth. Gathering haijin to display their various styles is the best way to encourage participation and dispel myths about the principles of haiku. Also, it ensures that haiku continues to evolve as an art form.
Other than that, it is just fun!!!
I encourage everyone to get involved! To do so, please note =Iscariot-Priest and let him know you would like to participate. If this is your first time writing haiku, feel free to ask any of the experienced poets for help. You will find that many of them are willing to give constructive and sound advice.
I hope to see everyone there!
Even if you cannot participate, please spread the word by featuring the stamp, created by `Memnalar
