CNF Anthology Nominations
Each year since 2006, Creative Nonfiction Journal has sponsored an anthology of the best creative nonfiction from the calendar year. Editors of both print and online journals may make nominations from their own publication. Editor Dinty Moore makes selections for the anthology, which will be published by Norton.
I sent off our nominations from Relief a couple of weeks ago, and I did so with great satisfaction. Whether or not they are selected for Best of Creative Nonfiction. Vol. 3, I am so proud to have these essays representing Relief’s work before Dinty and his readers. Two of our three nominations are pieces forthcoming in the next couple of issues. Watch for them. Here’s a sneak peek.
From issue 2.2
“The World I Breathe” by Karen Miedrich-Luo
