The astronomy ghazal challenge is completed: ??The issue presenting the results is now online. You may go directly to the index page for the challenge or go to the main page and follow links from there.

If you have comments or responses to the astronomy issue or other aspects of The Ghazal Page, you may post them as comments on this blog.

There is also a new challenge, with "change" as the theme. I look forward to seeing the ghazals you write in response to the challenge. (Be sure to read the instructions carefully.) The challenges have produced some of the best ghazals published in TGP. 

The next issue will be published around 21 March; the deadline for the new challenge is 30 June. These dates reflect the new publishing schedule: quarterly issues and two challenges a year.
