What is “the other bunny”?

Well, a place, a “running” journal, for the “other kind of haibun”, the kind of haibun you normally won’t find in (regular) haiku/haibun journals. This journal/blog/site will be updated continuously i.e. submitted work will be published as they are accepted by the editor (Johannes S. H. Bjerg).

From December 2022 The Other Bunny will also take prose poems and short lyrical prose.

What to send: cutting edge haibun, free verse + haiku, collage poems + haiku, mash-up texts + haiku, experimental + haiku, tiny haibun (max. 25-30 word prose), haibunga (haibun incorporated into an image/photo/collage/painting), manipulated non-fiction + haiku, asemic writing pieces + haiku and whatever you can think of.

What not to send: traditional haibun, sci-fi haibun, fantasy haibun, haibun than dwells on past memories (childhood, failed loves etc. (private hurt)), single haiku, nature observations, long walks, lost loves, tanka prose, no tanka whatsoever … what you can find elsewhere ;-) and remixes, erasures or “found” poetry. Write your own.

Formats etc.: send a max. of 3 works at a time and wait for acceptance/rejection before you send in new stuff. Send doc, docx, odt (any Libreoffice/Openoffice format), pdf, jpg – practically anything except “pages” files (Mac) to:

tob(@)megaga(dot)dk with “submission” [your name] in the subject line i.e. “Submission John Doe”

REMEMBER to quote your sources if you use other people’s materials. Even if they are dead and copyrights have expired.

PS: of course all right remains with the authors.
