Just about to send Kokako 10 off to the printers. It’s quite exciting – my first issue as co-editor! And there’s some really gorgeous work in there (although I would say that, wouldn’t I? – true, none the less).
The cover image, incidentally, is by Gina. (Her website is well worth checking out.)
It’s always interesting to see the new names appear, and watch them develop. I had a certain amount of that particular joy with the Small White Teapot haiku group. (Ah, glory days, glorious days!) And of course it was (and still is) one of the pleasures of editing the NZPS anthologies.
And now for the obligatory plug …
Kokako is New Zealand’s only haikai publication, so get in behind us!
Sixty pages of haikai history-in-the-making can be yours for the measly sum of NZ$20 for two issues, or US$20 for two issues sent airmail anywhere in the world.
Clicking on this link will even open a printable subscription form.
(Now how’s that for pimping?)
