Awards & recognition
Nominations
How TSQ selects and announces nominations for published work.
TSQ wants strong work to travel beyond the magazine. Where a piece is eligible, our editors may nominate published work for external prizes, anthologies and annual best-of collections.
How nominations work
Nominations are selected by the editors from work published by TSQ. Writers and artists do not need to pay a fee or submit their work to us again for consideration.
Eligibility, category limits and deadlines vary by award. When TSQ makes nominations, we will announce them on this page and through our usual channels.
Awards we may consider
Depending on eligibility and the work we publish, this may include the Pushcart Prize, Best of the Net, Best Small Fictions and other category-specific opportunities. Visual work may also be considered for Best of the Net’s Art category and other appropriate visual-art or photography awards and annuals where publication or editor entry is permitted.
Being published by TSQ does not guarantee a nomination, and nomination decisions remain editorial.
