With so many thought-provoking pieces published in America's Future, this year was an exceptionally challenging one to select only six for the PUSHCART BEST OF SMALL PRESSES. However, we believe this work vividly represents the vitality, vibrancy, and literary excellence of our anthology--and WWPH.

CONGRATULATIONS!!

And thank you to all in our community -- to all the 164 contributors to America's Future! We are the Washington Writers' Publishing House because of you!
