I'm envious Chase, you are going to meet a lot of nice people who also write fine haiku and tanka etc...

More details:

You'll love Roberta Beary, a good friend of mine who pops over to Bath and London regularly so we can meet up. A delicious sense of humor and a top haiku writer, as well as haibun etc...

Let her know you are a friend of mine.  :)

Also, I've never met Lenard Moore so I'm really jealous, I'm a huge admirer of the man and his work: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenard_Moore

You'll also meet the man behind this very site (blog and forum), Dave Russo.

Gosh, you are going to have such an amazing time!

Alan

Sounds great!  If I still lived in South Carolina, I'd go for sure.  Bit too long a drive from Southern California, though...  :D

Hi Stewart,
I just got to the hotel in Chapel Hill NC. After a twelve hour drive!
Too bad you cant go, but I cant imagine driving from CA to NC lol.

I'm off to bed, I'll post about what happened at the meeting tomorrow

It was awesome. Everyone was really cool and the ginko was BEAUTIFUL. I'm going next year for sure!

Well worth the twelve hour drive :)
