HNA Anthologies

Picture
One highlight of each Haiku North America conference has been the publication of an anthology of haiku and senryu by conference attendees. At each conference, many attendees enjoy getting their anthologies signed by other attendees. These anthologies have contained at least one haiku from every conference registrant who submitted usually five or more poems by a deadline shortly before each event. In the published anthologies, not everyone who attended submitted, but each anthology does represent the majority of each conference’s attendees. Since the beginning in 1991, each anthology has been published by Press Here, and edited by Michael Dylan Welch, usuallyin conjunction with a coeditor from the region where each conference has been held. The following links present selections from each collection with the intention of representing some of the best poems as well as notable contributors.

Press Here has published the following HNA anthologies. Click each link to read many selected haiku and senryu and other details.. Among the sample poems is one from each anthology by William J. Higginson, who is the only person to have attended every HNA conference in its first nine conferences.

1993: The Shortest Distance, Ebba Story and Michael Dylan Welch, editors
