Nominations for the Pushcart Prize
This year, we are nominating for The Pushcart Prize, which welcomes up to six nominations (print or online) of both traditional and experimental writing from little magazines and small book press editors throughout the world. We love every piece we select for publication; thus, it has been difficult narrowing our nominations to six for the Pushcart Prize.
We realize that the Pushcart Prize anthology features work by many winners and finalist, however, we feel no matter the outcome, it is our responsibility to give our contributors the opportunity to have their work read by a wider audience, including the judges and editors of the anthology. We are therefore delighted to nominate our contributors works for the Pushcart Prize, extending their audience, because we find their work brilliant and necessary. The selected works appeared in Inverted Syntax Issue 2, 3 and Fissured Tongue Our nominations are: Lawrence S. Early IV, "La Garganta Antropofagia” (Issue 3) Andrè O Hoilette, Fear of the Police (Fissured Tongue Nov 2020) Maurya Kerr, “for” (Issue 3) Luna Mac-Williams, "Luna Dragon (Issue 3) Stephanie Niu, "By These Things We Live” (Issue 3) Leonora Simonovis, "Of Mouths and Tongues” (Issue2) |
