Posted on December 17, 2015 by tadbartlett

For 2015 small press publications, two of Peauxdunque’s own have been tapped as nominees for the Pushcart Prize. For fiction, Maurice Carlos Ruffin‘s short story, “The Boy Who Would Be Oloye,” has been nominated by The Massachusetts Review. This is Maurice’s second Pushcart nomination, as he also received a nomination last year from The Knicknackery. For non-fiction, Tad Bartlett‘s piece, “Head Space,” has been nominated by The Writing Disorder.

Onward into 2016!

In publication news from Peauxdunque, we’re happy to announce that Maurice Carlos Ruffin‘s story, “The Boy Who Would Be Oloye,” has been accepted for publication by Massachusetts Review; and that AGNI Online has accepted for publication Cassie Pruyn‘s poems, “Love Lost Lounge” and “Maine Morning, Age 5.”

“The Boy Who Would Be Oloye” was recently named a finalist in the short story category of the William Faulkner-William Wisdom writing competition (Maurice was named the winner of the novel-in-progress category of that competition and the first runner-up in the essay category). “Love Lost Lounge” was a finalist in the poetry category of that competition this year.

Many congratulations!
