The Editorial Board and the Center for Culture and Information Ludbreg invites all interested haikuists who want to participate in the creation of the Haiku zbornik – Ludbreg 2025 to send their poems. An invitation to participate in creation of the Haiku zbornik – Ludbreg 2025 has no competitive character.
Rules and limitations
The number of poems that can be submitted is limited to 6 per author.
For those who practice to write erotic haiku, some (or even all) can be with that theme. The best erotic poem will be awarded with the “Afrodita” plaque. Haikus intended for this award have to be marked as such – haiku for Afrodita. If not, although erotic themed, they won’t be considered.
If the haiku are translated into English (preferably!), be sure to write the name and surname of the author of the translation.
Please do not sign the poems with any codes, but only with the author’s name, surname and the country it comes from.
Poems for publication in the Haiku zbornik – Ludbreg 2025 will be selected by the editorial board.
“Gavran”/”Raven” award
This year’s theme: Finger
Five years have passed since the death of Zdenko Oreč “Gavran” (1930-2020), the founder of the Ludbreg haiku meetings. In his honor and memory, in 2021 we published a special edition of the thematic haiku collection of papers entitled “Raven” and launched the award of the same name. This year marks a hunderth death anniversary of Ivan Vučetić, an Argentinian criminalist of Croatian origin (Juan Vuchetich; 1858 – 1925). He was the inventor of dactyloscopy, so this year’s theme is – FINGER.
Rules:
Each participant may submit only one haiku signed by name, surname and address for this year’s theme – Finger.
Poem must be original and unpublished (either in print or on social networks).
Poems can be submitted in Croatian and (or) in English language.
