Geppo

— 月歩, Geppō ⁽meaning Moon Step) is the study-work journal for the Yuki Teikei Haiku Society of United States and Canada. For each issue a member may submit three haiku, which are published anonymously. A member may vote for commendable haiku from the latest issue. In the next issue the voting  results are tallied and the top ten poems republished together with each author's name. Two dojin (haiku experts, in Japanese) select commendable poems and provide  comments of appreciation and possible improvement.  Each issue of Geppo presents a "Kigo Challenge" in which a season word is presented and described, together with examples of its use in haiku. The journal also provides news and announcements of activities of the Society.
