tinywords contest report - a final note
One of the judges, encyclopedist Charlie Trumbull, maintains a database of about 90,000 published English-language haiku -- by his estimate, about half of the haiku published in English to date. He used this database to check many of the entries (and all of the winners) to see whether they'd been published before. There were no matches.
