For those new to haiku (and senryu), one way to share your poems is to submit them to journals and magazines. Here’s a round up of places calling for submissions as of March 1st, 2023. (There are calls for submissions that I know about; if I missed any, don’t hesitate to link them in the comments.)
Be sure to check the submission guidelines and dates as well as familiarize yourself with the type of poems they’ve published in the past. Many journals will not accept previously published haiku and senryu and many will not accept simultaneous submissions. Other, though, will. So read carefully as every journal is different.
