The Drabbun Anthology 2.0 - Paperback

by Francis W. Alexander (Editor), Teri Santitoro (Editor)

Drabbun are a relatively new hybrid poetic form that was invented in 2020 by Terrie Leigh Relf, Francis W. Alexander, and Teri Santitoro.

They are basically a cross between Drabbles (a 100-word prose story) and haibun (a prose section with an accompanying scifaiku). Therefore a drabbun is a prose section with an accompanying scifaiku, the two of them together comprising 100 words total. The title is not included in the word count. The scifaiku may come before the prose section, in the body of the prose, or after it, and may or may not explain, intensify or be explained by the prose section. Sometimes drabbun have more than one prose section or many scifaiku or many of each.
