The Short of It Pushcart Prize Nominations

carte blanche - Pushcart Prize News! - carte blanche

Since the beginning, my goal has been to promote the work of poets and writers with a gift for expression in a minute fashion. I’m thankful that this reputable organization exists to help further that effort.

I am very happy to announce the following poets’ pieces were submitted to the Pushcart Prize Committee. Those selected were nominated for their contributions to the Sound of Brilliance Anthology—a collection of the best featured on the online publication. It was so hard to trim it down to only six pieces as the contributions were already the best of the best!

So, please give a round of applause and wish them the best!

  1. Dear Susi, I was speechless when I got your lovely email about such an honor. I have been so proud to work with you and have my work included in your publications. The splendid poetry in both books was truly thought-provoking and what I like to call raw, getting to the truth. Both books had pieces that made you cry and smile, and often both. Thank you for your honored support and for the kindness and encouragement you have given me over the years.
