Denis Garrison, Tanka Poet and Editor, Injured in Crash

Today I received word that Denis M. Garrison, the well-known tanka poet and editor, was seriously injured in a crash on 9/8. His wife was also seriously injured.

Denis suffered multiple fractures and is expected to be in rehab for the next six weeks. His wife suffered multiple fractures and will be in rehab for several months.

Modern English Tanka will be delayed a month while Denis recuperates.

I will continue managing the Tanka Roundtable in his absence.

Denis is the former editor of Haiku Harvest, and is the current editor of Modern English Tanka , the webmaster of TankaCentral.com, the Manager of Tanka Roundtable, and author of Eight Shades of Blue.
