Hello, Friends of Sheila-Na-Gig online,
After publishing so many wonderful poems throughout the year, it’s an insanely difficult task to choose just SIX to nominate for the Best of the Net Anthology! My nominations are below. Best of luck to the nominees, and many thanks to ALL the poets who’ve helped make Sheila-Na-Gig online everything I knew it could be !
