There are awards at different times of the year... Example, the Pushcart Prize - this is a recognition award for pieces published in/by independent and small presses.... Editors can nominate 6 pieces. Other awards are Best of the Net, Best Small Fictions, + BestMicrofiction.. we participate by nominating pieces from those we published.... Many other lit mags do the same... This is an exciting time of year... But the best (and only) way for writers to participate is to submit to lit mags who nominate and hope they are nominated.. if you're not nominated right away, don't be discouraged - some of the best never get nominated.... Just keep submitting, keep honing your craft and don't give up! 😁

Today, my story was supposed to be published; how can I find it? Do I get a notification? If it's published, will I be participating in the cupid prize

Stories publish at 9am eastern time each day.... And if you are subscribed you will receive it by email, otherwise you can just visite the substack and see it posted... As a contributor, you are eligibje for nomination in the Cupid Prize .. nomination is determined by post engagement - likes, views, etc... I emcourage all contributors to share the post/link of their story to social media, with friends, etc to drive that engagement.... Thanks for your great story .. I'm currently reviewing Octobers submissions and I'll be getting back to you about your other pieces ... Thanks!! Have a great day....
