Award Nominations

Some work stays with us long after we finish reading it.

Each year, Hollow and Sky may nominate select pieces from our pages for awards, anthologies, and other opportunities for recognition. These nominations reflect not only craft, but work that continues to echo in the mind—pieces that remain present weeks or months after publication.

This page serves as a record of those nominations. We are grateful to the writers and artists who have shared their work with us and honored to help carry that work into new spaces.
