It’s that time again & our staff has participated in weeks of nominations & voting to finally settle on a group of poems, stories, non-fiction pieces, & art to nominate for Sundress Publishing’s 2025 Best of the Net anthology.
We will be promoting our picks by category daily Sept. 24-27 — so be sure to catch us on Instagram & Twitter. These pieces are some of our favorites that we published during the qualifying period. However, we are proud of everything we have published. & are infinitely grateful for the work our contributors, independent writers & artists, have put into their creations & thank everyone for sharing their work with us.
