Attention PJ submitters! We've had a chance to look over all of your submissions, and we should be reaching out by the end of this weekend with our initial round of acceptances! If you don't receive one, there is still a (slim) chance your poem may make it in.

This season’s issue will arrive a little later than planned β€” now publishing on Friday, November 7th.

We’ve had a record number of submissions this time, and we want to give every haiku the care and attention it deserves. Thank you for your patience and understanding ☺️
