Starship Sloane has submitted the maximum number of nominations allowed in each category reviewed by BotN, including creative nonfiction, a genre that we hope to acquire more of when The Lotus Tree Literary Review opens for submissions. That said, because CNF lacks rigidly established conventions, we are planning to submit the nonfiction essay by Daniel Pomarède, “Our Place on the Map of the Universe,” in that category and see how it plays out.
Winning entries will be announced near the end of January 2023.
Cheers to these talented folks!
