AWARD NOMINATIONS — 2016

We are so pleased to announce our nominations for two awards: Best of the Net and the Pushcart Prize. We owe everything to all of our wonderful contributors, and it was a challenge to select just a handful, but we felt these pieces really highlighted our focus and drive here at CHEAP POP.  (Seriously: we are lucky to publish consistently excellent, moving stuff.)

And here they are:
