I'm glad you included Bill Higginson's website, as he is the leading Western authority on renga and renku. Bill's site might not have been updated recently but his site is timeless. Alas, Bill is very unwell and undergoing surgery right, but it would please him if people did 'pop into' his site. ;-) Good that you also have the renga platform website for the U.K. too. For other good sites on haiku and renga you can check out my Area 17 blog: area17.blogspot.com My With Words site has the recent results of our international haiku competition won by one of the World's top haiku writers in the West: www.withwords.org.uk all my best, Alan This is a nice article.
