Woooh! I’m excited (in case you couldn’t tell). One of the poems in my book, Chronicles of a Bee Whisperer — Pietà — has been nominated for a Pushcart!
Originally published in the Summer 2012 print issue of Emerge Literary Journal, this poem was one that I worked on with Darcie Dennigan while I was a student at UConn. I’m honored and humbled to have had this poem nominated for the award.
The Pushcart Prize, for those that don’t know, honors the best poetry, fiction, and nonfiction published by small presses each year. An anthology of the winning works is published annually.
Fingers crossed! Wish me luck!
