joyful!

From its website: "The Pushcart Prize - Best of the Small Presses series published every year since 1976, is the most honored literary project in America. Hundreds of presses and thousands of writers of short stories, poetry and essays have been represented in the pages of our annual collections.”

joyful! nominates work published on this site. Making the decision was never easy because, as editor of joyful!, I consider ALL of the works on these pages to be of the best of its kind to be found anywhere!
