It’s hard to believe that it’s time for another round of Pushcart nominations! As always, narrowing this list down to six continues to be a challenge for us. We are proud of every single contributor, however, we can only select six.
With that being said, here are this year’s nominations for the Pushcart Prize!

“Gorgon” by Miriam Richer (Issue 28)
“All That’s Green in the Desert” by Lucero Valdovinos (Issue 29)
