It’s a true craftsmanship, writing haiku, and should not be approached in any other way. Because of the craftsmanship mastering the craft of haiku writing can only be done by doing it. Practice, practice. And while writing finding sounds and rhythm and finding for yourself the rules for writing haiku. Finding the rules by studying other haiku too. That is traditionally the way to go, for a reason.
