Hot News: A New Milestone, 660,000 Pageviews

My Dear Friends:

Launched on the first day of 2013, NeverEnding Story crossed the 660,000 view mark early this morning.

Stats:

Pageviews yesterday: 535
Pageviews last month:15,752

I am grateful to everyone who has been a part of this poetry journey. And look forward to reading your new haiku/tanka (see 2017 anthology submission guidelines for haiku and tanka )

A haiku or a tanka without "rhetoric" was likely to be no more  than a brief observation without poetic tension or illumination.

-- Donald Keene, The Winter Sun Shines in: A Life of Masaoka Shiki.

Note:  In addition to being translated into Chinese and published on NeverEnding Story, the accepted haiku and tanka will be tweeted and re-tweeted by  @storyhaikutanka (NeverEnding Story's Tweeter account: following: 6, followers: 1,254) and @ericcoliu (Chen-ou Liu's Tweeter account: following: 4, followers: 3,216) respectively to reach a larger readership.
