Pushcart Prize Nominations

I am pleased to announce our six 2017 Pushcart Prize nominations (this year’s nominations are considered for the following calendar year).

They are:

‘Girls’ by Bethany W Pope (Issue #3)

‘How to Make a Halo’ by Kevin Casey (Issue #4)

‘The Etiquette of Loss’ by Maurice Devitt (Issue #4)

‘The Bargain’ by Bethany Rivers (Issue #2)

‘Mambo’ by Neil Fulwood (Issue #1)

‘My Coat with Rainbow Sleeves’ by Mary Imo-Stike (Issue #2)

It goes without saying you should check out the poems above, and their companions in all of our issues – the decision was a tough one because every piece of work selected is dearly loved.

And thanks, as always, for your readership and support of Picaroon!
