• Conclave Journal Pushcart Prize Nominations
  We are pleased to announce that a half-dozen works from our 2012 issues of Conclave: A Journal of Character have been nominated for the Pushcart Prize. It has been a difficult decision, but the editors worked in earnest to nominate the very best of the many pieces we have had the honor to publish in these last issues.  We have had many wonderful selections of prose, poetry, photography, and art in our third and fourth issues.

The following people have been nominated for the Pushcart Prize for their appearances in Conclave: A Journal of Character in 2012.

Sara Backer for her poem “Ivan VI: The Nameless One.”
Jessica Amanda Salmonson for her short story “The Watcher.”
Mia Avramut for her creative nonfiction “The Mongolian Goat.”
Alexander Tan for his poem “Infidels.”
Jacob Waalk for his poem “Perched Upon the Scythe of the World.”
Trudy Carpenter for her short fiction “Homecoming.”
