Shane Joaquin Jimenez

Jennifer Galvao, a white woman with long light-brown hair, smiling. She's wearing a gray shirt and gold necklace and standing in front of a divided wall.

Loubna El-Amine, a Middle Eastern woman with dark hair piled on top of her head in a bun, wears a dark turtleneck in a black-and-white portrait. She smiles broadly.

Richard Hague, an older man with gray beard and mustache and rectangular glasses, wears a dark vest over a white henley and a newsboy cap. He stands in an aisle of books at Cincinnati's Mercantile Library with his hands clasped and smiles warmly.

We're delighted to announce our nominees for the upcoming edition of the Pushcart Prize: Jennifer Galvão, @loubnaelamine.bsky.social, Richard Hague, James Ciano, and Fran Qi. Best of luck to all!

Six months ago today, I published this book and it continues to find readers.

Thinking today about art and the insanity of committing your life to it (in the face of an indifferent world, a world on fire, etc etc).

Loving the start of Everybody Knows by @jordanharper.bsky.social

Slick and confident opening page salvo.

Very much agreed! I love the Altman-esque interweaving of character POVs. Such a cool movie.

@madverse.bsky.social What’s up, Boulder poet! I miss that amazing city you live in.

Congrats!

Such a great movie. Funny and visceral and resonant. “Fucking help me.”

Can’t wait to see it. The book’s really great.

Yes, this is a great one. Such a quietly desperate and heartfelt book. My favorite Ishiguro book depends on the day, but I keep coming back to Never Let Me Go.

Feeling 70s Planet of the Apes TV show vibes today

Summer of the apes

Spicy take.

A watchlist from contributor Shane Joaquin Jimenez to accompany his story in our spring issue. Link in first comment:

Count Cool Rider was a vampire Elvis monster movie host in Las Vegas in the 90s. I watched his show every Saturday night at 10 PM, soaking the late night B movie VHS transfer neon buzz down to my DNA.

“Love at First Fright” up now at The Cincinnati Review.

Sounds awesome!

Love these, man.

Love this game. Never played it at the time, but the Genesis games were mind blowing for 13 year old me. Lots of good battles in this one but I miss the towns of 1 and the free roaming of 2.
