Mandy Hill See Amanda's profile of George Swede. And her interview-essay on Swede's haiku.

My haiku to me, is a collection of my thoughts. Some are fun ways to relieve stress, others are thoughts that never leave my mind. Some are written for nothing more than image while others leave the reader to decide the fate of the situation and the characters in it. A collaboration of emotion and poetic readiness comprise the haiku in this collection. Please enjoy. —Mandy
