Here is a small sampling from our recent Editor Interviews. We have interviewed over 1,675 editors.
Q: Do you nominate work you've published for any national or international awards?
A: No, we don’t.
A: Some times. It's best for authors to be up on these awards and willing to ask us.
A: We'll be nominating for Best Small Fiction, Best Microfiction and hopefully more.
A: No but the magazine did win a Gold for Electronic Publications in the 2019 COVR (Coalition of Visionary Resources) Awards
A: We have done so in the past, and we will probably continue to do so, yes.
A: Yes, we nominate for Pushcart, O.Henry and others. We just had a Witness story win the most recent O.Henrys, and Witness has had notable stories in the last several Best American Short Stories.
A: Not so far, but it is definitely something to consider.
A: I have not and thank you for that idea.
Maybe I will start today.
A: Yes, we nominate for any relevant national and international awards.
A: I nominate works for the Pushcart Prize.
A: We will! Our first issue came out after the award deadlines, but we're looking forward to nominating our writers.
A: "Awards" primarily benefit the firm hosting those awards via submission fees so we do not participate in awards programs.
