2016 has been an incredible year of discovery. Please join me in congratulating these authors and poets for outstanding work. There are so many good stories and poems in our menagerie, the challenge to select only a few was incredibly difficult.

With a full heart, I am incredibly grateful to all who braved the challenge and actually clicked ‘send’ to submit their work. Thank you for your trust, your work — and the gift of your writer’s voice.

Kae Sable, Editor in Chief
