Haiku Down Under 2024 was held via Zoom over the weekend of 16th-18th August 2024. I deeply appreciate the commitment and effort of my co-organisers Sue Courtney (New Zealand), Carole Harrison (Australia) and Carol Reynolds (Australia) in planning and running this second trans-Tasman haiku gathering. I’m also grateful to the presenters, discussion panel members, guest Session Hosts and the participants from all over who made it an engaging and stimulating weekend. Thanks also to Sandra Simpson, who at late notice became our Patron, and who has written some kind words on her breath blog site.
