We are as excited as rats in a donut shop to present our Pushcart Prize nominees for this year.

Here they are, in alphabetical order:

Grace Elizabeth Butler, “The Wolf Who Was Late” (fiction)

Ashley Roth, “Adolescent” (fiction)

Ezra Solway, “Birthday 10” (poem)

Congratulations to Grace, Ashley, Ezra, Joshua, and Lauren, and a huge thank you to all our contributors and everyone who has submitted work to us this year. We literally wouldn’t exist without you.

And thank YOU, person reading this right now, for taking an interest in the arts and being generally awesome. Treat yourself to a donut.
