Ploughshares, based at Emerson College, is excited to announce the winners of the 2014 Emerging Writer’s Contest. The contest recognizes work by an emerging writer in each of three genres: poetry, nonfiction, and fiction. One writer in each genre receives $1,000 and publication in the Winter 2014 issue of Ploughshares. This year’s winners were Rosalie Moffett for her poems “Why Is It The More?,” “To Leave Through a Wall,” and “Hurricane 1989”; Elise Colette Goldbach for her nonfiction piece “In Memory of the Living”; and Tomiko Breland for her fiction piece “Rosalee Carrasco.”
