Here are Synkroniciti’s nominations for Best of the Net from July 1st, 2022 to June 30th, 2023. This list includes some of our favorite work from “Empowered,” “Intersections,” “Wild,” and “Curiosity.” We will also be nominating 6 completely different literary artists featured during 2023 for Pushcart Prizes later this fall. Some of our “Empowered” and “Intersections” artists were already nominated for last year’s Pushcarts. If we’ve published you, know that we already think you are a winner. Good luck, everyone!
