AboutHey,
I'm aware that other haiku communities are out there, but I wanted to create one under my jurisdiction that could be a place where my friends (or anyone who wants to join) and I could do it. I have a haiku journal that I tend to carry around and annoy people by asking them to write in, so this way I could also transfer some from the community into there.
Thanks,
Paullee WR
