2021 Pushcart Prize Nominations

It’s official! This year’s Pushcart Nominations have been signed, sealed, and delivered (or at least dropped off at the USPS)!! 

Each year editors of small book presses, magazines, and journals are invited to nominate six pieces of poetry, short stories, essays, memoirs or stand-alone excerpts from novels. Pieces published (or scheduled to be published) between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2021 are eligible which for us meant work from Issues #3, #4, and #5. We’re excited to announce the following nominations:

• Fiction
  • What I Lost in September | by Autumn Bettinger (Issue #3) 
  • What the Cherub Saw | by Derek Harmening (Issue #4)
