Full moon rode the sky
Its bright splendor shimmering
On smooth, cool water.

Tension fills the air
As leaves quiver on the trees
Waiting for the storm

6/24/08 08:29 pm - [info]margaret_yakoda - obnoxious newbie question

Hi guys,

I was wondering....

I'm planning on going to the Haiku Northwest gathering this weekend. I've only been to one other haiku meet-up before and it was just a local thing with about eight attendees. Their tradition is to bring four to six 'ku to share and critique.

The Haiku Northwest site suggests folks bring a tri-folded hand-out to share. I can fit quite a few haiku on a tri-fold.... And I'm apparently quite prolific at writing them. Now... I don't want to look like a braggart or a show off or anything of the sort (nor do I wish to inflict a large amount of dross on folks, if that's what my efforts turn out to be) so I was wondering...

How many haiku is a good average number to put on a hand-out for a big event? Is fifteen too many? Twenty?
And what might be good guess at the number of hand-outs to print for such an event? Attendance might be as many as fifty people or more over the weekend.
