Sorry to harp on, the call out here and at Facebook got a lot of responses, but curiously very quiet on the American front.
Now last time I looked, I thought there were a heck of a lot of fine American women writing haiku, here and elsewhere. ;-)
Only a week and a wee bit left to the deadline for this anthology that will be talked about for years!

Call for Submissions: An Anthology of English-Language Haiku by Women
Seeking haiku and senryu for an anthology focusing on excellent English-language haiku by women around the world.
Ladies, send 5-15 of your best haiku, published or unpublished, to: <paperlanternhaiku@gmail.com>.
With your submission, please include your name, country, a brief bio of 150 words or less, and any applicable publication credits of submitted poems.
Nominations of poets and individual poems are also welcome, and strongly encouraged.
Deadline: April 15.
It had come to my attention when searching that there is not anthology of just women's English-language haiku (none that I've found anyway). With such prolific and powerful women writers within the English-language community, they deserve a space/recognition of their own.
