Fortnight: The Season of Thanks & Giving — Day 5

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:
“My favorite part of The Haiku Foundation is the Digital Library. I like to browse to see which haiku books have been published recently and read the (sometimes rare or old) books that have been uploaded.”
THF Fact of the Day:
In 2025, The Haiku Foundation added scores of new poets to the Haiku Registry, along with basic information about each poet, contact information, and a selection of their recent work. The Haiku Registry is administered by Marta Chocilowska.
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 “Haiku of Delicious Sensuality: An Interview with Celestine Nudanu” by Sheila Smith McKoy.
