We hope you will enjoy this, our twenty-fourth issue, Nov/Dec 2024.
We continue to be grateful for the interest, support and quality of the work that has been submitted thus far – from novices to experienced haiku poets. Truly appreciated. And we are very proud that we have published work from the range of this spectrum. We thank everyone who has continued to support our efforts.
We are also most grateful for the haiga/endpieces as well as the sidebars that have graced our pages. Again, from novices to accomplished writers, artists and photographers – the work has appreciably added to the quality and tone of the journal.
True to its name, tsuri-dōrō seeks to be “a small journal of haiku and senryū” – not an elitist journal by any means, but one that is readable and accessible without being overwhelming.
PLEASE NOTE: We will be accepting submissions for the Jan/Feb. 2025 Issue #25 from Nov. 1st, 2024 through Nov. 10th, 2024.

– tsuridoro defines “unpublished” as not having appeared in any book, journal, self-published chapbook, sequence, part of a haibun or part of a haiga, blog – either in print or online – and not having appeared on any social media site, whether self-published or not, such as Facebook, Twitter, etc.

3. Endpiece:
– We accept original, unpublished submissions of haiga OR art for consideration as the issue endpiece.
– We ask that haiga/endpiece submissions be submitted AS attachments please.
– Where the art and poem are by two different people, indicate clearly each attribution.
– The inclusion of an “issue endpiece” came about organically and unplanned as the first two issues featured haiga as endpieces that were not part of the original layout.
4. Sidebar:
– We accept original, unpublished submissions of photography or art for consideration as the issue sidebar.
– We ask that sidebar submissions be submitted AS attachments please.
