tinywords 22.2 has now ended with Kerry J. Heckman’s “telescope images”. The submission window for tinywords 23.1 will open on February 1st and remain open until the end of the month. Sending regular submissions to tinywords is a simple two-step process:
1 – Just check out our guidelines at https://tinywords.com/about/ and then
2 – Click on this link to submit your work: https://tinywords.com/submit/
We’ll accept submissions from Feb. 1 through Feb. 28, 2023. Please send us your small poems, haiga, or brief haibun to be considered for our next issue, which will start in March or April.
While we work on the next issue, how about a new writing prompt?
Our photo prompt image, above, is an award-winning close-up by Thorsten Denhard. Take a look at this alien-like being: the macroglossom stellatarum in flight near lavender. Better known as a hummingbird hawk-moth, this insect’s movement perfectly echoes the flight of an actual hummingbird. A fascinating and cool little creature that really holds your attention when you see one hovering like it does. A veritable poem in and of itself. We hope it inspires you to create one of your own. Or maybe two. Be sure to share them with us.
Leave your best efforts in response to the photo prompt in the comment box below and the tinywords editorial team will share the best of the best at the start of tinywords 23.1, due out in late March, 2023.
Thanks again for dropping by. And, as always, good writing.
Be well,
The Editors
