Thank you to all entrants in the Lamar York Prizes for Fiction and Nonfiction for sending us great work and for making our prizes a success. On the task of selecting favorites (always subjective, of course), we were honored to consider so many fine submissions and to hand our judges such a gratifying challenge. We encourage all of our entrants to keep writing, and to keep reading literary journals like ours. All entrants receive a subscription, and we hope they are encouraged by their fellow writers.
