Title: 'muttering thunder' vol. 1, 2014 is online
Post by: Ron Moss on November 11, 2014, 04:12:05 PM
Hello!

We're writing to let you know that the first muttering thunder annual has just been published. It's a collection of nature-oriented haiku and art available for free online viewing and download. This first annual, dedicated to the memory of Martin Lucas, collects approximately 100 previously unpublished haiku by almost 60 premier English-language haiku poets from around the world. It also features a reprint of Robert Spiess's cogent essay "Specific Objects in Haiku" and a wide-ranging interview with haiku and lyric poet Wally Swist.

You can access the annual from this webpage:

We hope you'll enjoy it. If you have any comments or feedback, please feel free to write. We'd be quite interested in what you have to say. Also, please share this link with anyone who might be interested via email or social media.

Best wishes,
Allan Burns & Ron C. Moss

Was Muttering Thunder a one-off publication?
Are you considering submissions for a 2015 edition?

My newish MacBook Air took around 15-20 minutes, so it's best to download it onto a desk computer or a laptop.  But it is well worth it!

warm regards,

Alan
