Pushcart Prize Nominations

Many, many thanks to all the writers who published with Dark Sky during the last year. We love you all. But all cannot be nominated for the Pushcart Prize. Only six. Bah! That’s way too hard. Nonetheless, we went through our archives and picked short stories, poems, and novel excerpts that struck us as especially strong. Congratulations to the following folks:

* Tom Williams — The Mimics Own Voice (novel excerpt)
* Justin Sirois — Falcons on the Floor (novel excerpt)
* Jason Larson — The Burts (fiction)
* Roxane Gay — We Are Magnificent (fiction)
* Wendy Xu — If You Aren’t Busy I Think I’m On Fire (poetry)
* Mike Young — Is That It’s You (poetry)
