Fortnight: The Season of Thanks & Giving — Day 8
Welcome to Fortnight: The Season of Thanks & Giving, The Haiku Foundation’s annual fundraising drive, lasting from Thanksgiving to Saint Nicholas Day. During this period, we post daily special presentations highlighting the work we accomplished in the past year to thank our generous patrons. Each day of the fundraiser, we will offer a new set of highlights from 2025.
The Haiku Foundation is funded in its entirety by community donations. Will you help by contributing?
What Our Users Say:
“The Haiku Foundation is the ultimate destination for the haiku community, with lots of opportunities to exchange ideas, learn something new, or dig into the many resources. I especially like learning more about contemporary poets in the Haiku Registry.”
THF Fact of the Day:
In 2025, The Haiku Foundation continued its presentations of Haiku Dialogue, featuring haiku written to tri-weekly prompts provided by guest editors, and administered by Kathy Munro. Haiku Dialogue receives thousands of responses every year and is our most popular feature.
JUXTA Featured Article:
Juxtapositions: Research and Scholarship in Haiku, the only journal dedicated to these matters in English, celebrates its 11th anniversary this year. JUXTA is the product of several dedicated haiku scholars, editors, and contributors. To celebrate this milestone, we are featuring selected articles throughout our fundraiser. Today’s article, from JUXTA ELEVEN, is “Sixteen Ways of Looking at a Consummate Poet: A Review of Conversations with Lenard D. Moore” by Judson Evans.
