One sentence introducing yourself. Be quirky and interesting – you want people to visit your blog, don’t you?!
(Even if you have had haiku published on this site before, please still include all this information as I do not keep any details of previous submissions. By including all the required details it makes my life easier when scheduling haiku. Thank you.)
By submitting your haiku you confirm that you are the author of the work and that you give me permission to publish your work at Pure Haiku. The copyright remains with you, the author.
Please send me each haiku with just one or two lines of spacing between each one in the body of your email.

I can only accept haiku for consideration if they are EMAILED to me at the above mentioned address. Please DO NOT submit haiku via the comments box or via a facebook message or via G+ messaging.
Please do not send attachments. I can only accept haiku that are submitted in the body of the email.
