Congratulations to Adele Gardner! She’s our Halloween Haiku Challenge Winner for 2026!

Adele submitted her winning haiku on Bluesky. Adele’s also an artist, poet, and writer and it looks like she has a brand new book of poetry out called Halloween Dreams. Publishing is an amazing achievement. Let’s go show her some support!

There were only a few entries this  year, as expected. I appreciate those who did participate. You’re all awesome! Thank you all for helping me keep the Halloween spirit alive this year!

As tradition, I usually only post a few times in November. I typically take time to reset and prepare for the haunted holidays in December. Being this is an important election week here in America, I might be annoyingly active on Bluesky for another few days and then go dark. See you all next month! I wish you all Happy Autumn!🍃🍂🍁🎃
