MarjoleinRotsteeg, 1 year ago to random Dutch

A short reflection on my first month on Mastodon. I sometimes feel I've landed in a different universe, one where people respect each other and each other's work.This should be normal, in my mind, but, unfortunately, it has become special and rare. So I cherish the Mastodon community.

Today @HaikuCrush announces on formerly the bird site that one of my haiku has been included in 'The Best Haiku 2023. International Anthology' by www.haikucrush.com. Proud is a bit of an understatement. So for this once, a link to this social handle.

A pleasant surprise! I just found out that one of the haiku I submitted for the annual contest of the Haiku International Association has received an 'honorable mention'. 😃

An absolute asset is the recent online haiku magazine 'haikuNetra', curated by Daipayan Nair.
Issue 1.5 is online now, with two truly amazing haiku by @alansummers @haikutec.
I feel honoured that three of my haiku have been chosen.
