My name is an'ya and I write haiku and publish a Japanese short form poetry journal called moonset. Recently I have become interested in suiseki as well. For our spring issue, I am thinking of running a feature article about suiseki inspiring haiku, and combining the two forms.

Great site. As President of the Greater New Orleans Bonsai Society, I tell all our members what a great site this is to learn about Suiseki. I visit often and find the site most useful when it comes to classifing my own collection. Thank you.

Yulem.com is where collectors of yulem objects can share their
objects and ides. Yulem describes an object formed by natural processes
which possesses a set of intrinsic aesthetic characteristics that
transform it into an object of unique interest. Only a naturally formed
object that is recognized to possess such a unique or appealing
character is considered a yulem object. I do not presume that yulem objects have attained the quality
and standing of the suiseki, gonshi, or bonsai forms. My humble hope is
to open a door for a similar appreciation of other, as-yet-unappreciated
forms. Yulem.com offers a few examples. Thank you for any feedback.

I just discovered suiseki yesterday after collecting pieces my
entire life. I am so excited to find an avenue for my passion on
artful rocks. Thank you for this wonderful site!

Hey mike. Best site on the web!!! Have some nice stones here in the PNW. Just checking in, you are in the league all your own on this.

My name's Denny, I live in Yogyakarta (Indonesia). It was interisting and like to see all. Many characteristic stones was shown to this web. I was surprised, how they can find many stones that look like real. And I think "why I cannot find or maybe to be that collectors of it." I like something about art. Even though I don't have reference about art. But I really, really want to collect and then want to show it to all. Because near of my house, there is a small river. But I can find many stones. Because that river is the way of the Mount Merapi vulcanic. When rain fall many material came down from the hill with many "weird" stone I can find. I want try it. Thank you.
Denny from Indonesia
What I really love about this site is... you can keep coming
back to it. The visuals are wonderful! I got my rocks off!
Denell McFall
Yours is an exciting site. It approaches a vast area of artistic
expansion potential which it appears is either udocumented or unexplored.
My approach covers color, texture,
shape, form, balance, scale and perspective and the possibility of sharing
gained insight is exciting.
Lance Bibbins
Thanks for bringing back great memories of the eel river, and some of the stones I collected there in 1984 without really knowing why.
Jeffrey Jones
Wow! This site has really grown in content and in quality. Your
Bolder Boulders is a great new suiseki store on ebay too! Keep up the
good work.

I am from the Philippines, 52 years old, a businessman. Suisekii is very new to me but I am very much interested to know more about the art of stone appreciation. I hope I can learn more in the future. Thank You.

I love rocks! I live in Minden, Nevada (near Lake Tahoe) and want to find others who would like to go suiseki hunting with me. I'm a beginner and would really
appreciate finding a mentor. Thanks for the inspirational site.

I have an outdoor gallery 25 feet from Hyw. 1 in Northern California - Jenner. I have been doing this for years and have only recently (two and a half monts ago) put it out for view and sale. I'm bewildered, I already have sold pieces that are now in Israel, Germany, Austria, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, New
York, New Jersey, Missouri, Arkansas, Idaho, Texas, Los Angels, Sacramento, San Francisco and many more locations in California. You can go here and search:
Webshots -- The Heart of the Archers Bowl -- I have had tremendous response, I think you
will enjoy it.

Have just been spending time at your excellent website. What a beautiful job you've done helping people understand the art and power of suiseki!
Thanks much, Len
Today was a red ( or green) letter day. Your stones arrived. Thanks so much for your thoughtfulness. The stones are great and will be given to my family and
friends,
I would like to see more of your find. The photo is quite interesting. I am glad to have met you and hope you had an enjoyed your brief visit to D.C. Please keep in touch.
Tom
My daughter and I are heading up to the Highland Lakes to camp. Your site is great! We remember a
wonderful rock shop in Murphys many years ago. I'm also interested in stones... Many thanks for the beautiful
site
Annmarie
I just read the Chronicle article yesterday and am fascinated by the
hobby. I have various rocks in my yard collected from Idaho mostly.
However, they don't seem to meet the criteria. Your stones are
beautiful, though.
Cheryl
Thanks for putting together such an informative site. We are about to go out to the Kern river in June for a little
prospecting and it was a pleasure to see your site before our trip. I am emailing your URL to 2 women friends who are
getting interested in suiseki. It will be a great introduction for them.
Happy Hunting,
Rocannon MacGregor
Here I am collecting appealing stones and now I hear of Suiseki. Wow!
Basil Gavin
Hello. I am a published poet and resident of New Hampshire. I'm very
interested in learning about Suiseki and wonder if there are classes or
programs I could enroll in. My most recent book, "Light from an
Eclipse," is a memoir covering the years of my dad's Alzheimer's
disease. I've loved rocks and stones all my life and need a break from
language.
Sincerely, Nancy Lagomarsino, nancylagomarsino@mindspring.com
This is the coolest Mike! You and Martha have done one fantastic
job. Anyone want some cool jades visit my site www.riverblossomjade.com
Thanks, Sam
"I am dutch and very much in love with bonsai and suiseki. I like to know how I can read the Korean sites of suiseki. I have seen beautiful stones on it for sale, but I can't understand Korean and because of that I don't know the measures, prices and so on for ordering some stones. Can you please help me?"
