I have some very exciting news!
Yesterday I found out that my publisher, Finishing Line Press, nominated Neoteny: Poems for The Pushcart Prize! This prize is specifically for the literary work of small presses, and each press may put forward six nominees for the year. I am one of five nominations from Finishing Line!
I am so honored to be nominated alongside these worthy authors. I can’t wait to see who wins!
Have you ordered your copy of Neoteny yet? The book will be in the mail in just a few weeks!

YAY Emily! I have been watching the success of your book and enjoying the interviews.
I am a friend of Melissa that raised your York.
Thank you so much, Laura! Yes, Melissa always spoke highly of you!
Congratulations, Emily! I am sure the nomination is well deserved and I am eagerly awaiting my copies of the book–one of which I will be giving as a Christmas gift to my niece who has just become a mother (October 29).
