You may send as many haiku or senryu as you like at $3 each: type or neatly print your submissions (you may put them all on a single sheet if you wish). If you send senryu, please mark them as such. Be sure to include your email address and/or an SASE so that we can notify you of the results!
You may also send your entries by email and pay via Paypal. Simply go to the Kaji Aso Studio Haiku Contest page, where you will find a Paypal button and instructions on how to use it to provide the fees for the contest. Due to technical issues, we are in the process of updating written information on the haiku page. In the meantime, you can simply use the 2021 page to submit your payment for this year. Any submission payments received in 2023 before April 15, 2023 will go towards the 2023 contest.
Then send your entries to the Kaji Aso Studio at this email address: admin2@kajiasostudio.com. Please write HAIKU CONTEST in the title line. All senryu entries should be clearly marked as such. When both your haiku and payment are received, your entries will be officially entered into the contest.
All entries should be unpublished and not under consideration for publication or by another contest. All entries are randomized and judged anonymously; the three judges are long-standing associates of the Kaji Aso Studio.
Our first prize is $300; second $150; third $75; senryu $75. If possible, we will have an online Zoom awards ceremony in which we invite all winners and honorable mention placers to participate.
Please send all entries to:
Kaji Aso Studio
Boston, MA 02115
USA
You can see the winning entries from past years at www.kajiasostudio.com. The winning entries from 2021, the last time we held the contest, are on the second page of this message.
All entries must be mailed by April 15, 2023. All rights revert to the authors after May 11, 2023 when the winners will be announced.
If you would like to see what kind of haiku and senryu we’re writing up Boston way, check out Biting The Sun, the twenty-fifth anniversary anthology of The Boston Haiku Society. It includes 18 haiku each from twenty-seven of its main members as well as essays on the history of the BHS and on the art of haiku itself. It is available at Amazon.com
