The Passion of Haibun course starting January 13th 2020 and ending on March 30th is now fully booked. Bookings are now being taken for the next course dates which are:

Start Date: Monday 6th April 2020

End Date: Monday 1st June 2020

Level:  Participants should have some existing experience of writing haiku,

but may be beginners, "improvers", or advanced, at haibun.

Group Size:  4    

Course Description:

Participants submit one new haibun for each of three assignments over two months.  We anticipate that each submitted haibun will fall within four hundred words within a single page. 

Optional prompts are given for each assignment. Substantial written feedback is given by tutor Alan Summers to each participant, with the group receiving the feedback  together, in a shared learning experience. 

If you would prefer to write "tanka stories" where tanka take the place of the haiku within a haibun, please let us know when booking, so we can ensure the assignment prompts are suitable for you. Thank you!

Full Cost: £175 (approximately US$225).

Early Bird Rate: £165 (approximately US$212) if booking by Monday 16th March 2020.
