Each evening after work, I read dozens and shared them with other poetry enthusiasts. My crushes were near-daily for about a year before I decided to start a search-and-awards competition, to find great haiku submitted to the HaikuCrush.com site I launched. Hundreds of haiku were evaluated by a panel of judges to select 50 winners for this book, with honorariums going to the \u003ci\u003ebest\u003c\/i\u003e of \u003cb\u003eThe Best Haiku Collection 4\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eI hope you find enjoyment in them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ep.s.If my prediction comes true, I'll look forward to reading your haiku in2025! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAll the Best, \u003cbr\u003eStephen FitzGerald, editor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Fitzgerald Editor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798303745599\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/14\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.18d","brand":"Stephen Fitzgerald Editor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46546155012351,"sku":"9798303745599","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_32f9b593-7708-414c-b665-3470e054d8e3.jpg?v=1738184259","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-best-haiku-collection-4-stephen-fitzgerald-editor-9798303745599","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
