I have reached 500 haiku and senryu pins on my PINTEREST board, Canadian haiku canadiens
I have reached 500 haiku and senryu pins on my PINTEREST board, Canadian haiku canadiens today, March 31 2019, since I first started posting them on this board on September 1 2018. If you are a member of PINTEREST, you can join this board, here:
This works out to a little more than 70 posts per month. I have to admit I sure am prolific, but this is because it is so much fun for me to write haiku and senryu.
If you are not a member, it is free to join PINTEREST, so you have nothing to lose, since you can view all of my haiku and senryu on my board.
Thanks
Richard
