Today we announce our Best of the Net 2019 Nominations. For those unfamiliar, Sundress Publications produces an annual Best of the Net Anthology to showcase online work. Submissions for the anthology, however, must come from the online publication that first shared the work online. In addition, for the 2019 anthology, the work must have appeared between July 1, 2018 and June 30, 2019.
While we had a limit on how many pieces we could nominate, we love all the work that we publish. Those of you who have contributed to this site over the past year will forever remain part of our herd. And we greatly appreciate you trusting us with your beautiful, heartfelt words!
