Nomination for the 2016 Pushcart Prize



It was great to hear recently from Muse-Pie Press that they had nominated my poem 'Wicklow Mountains After Rain' (which appeared in their short-poem publication Shot Glass Journal) for a 2016 Pushcart Prize.

This follows their nomination, last year, of one of my poems for the 2015 Pushcart Prize. I'm very flattered, and obviously it's once again motivation to get working...

  1. What a wonderfully evocative poem ... (and thank you for reminding me that nominations are for 2016, which still seems an age away!).

    1. Thanks so much, Caroline, and congratulations on your own nomination...there is something thrilling about the word Pushcart!

      As for 2016, if you think about it, that's really not far away at all...
