The fourteenth annual Goose River Anthology, 2016 is a fine collection of the best poetry, fiction, and essays submitted to us from all parts of the United States. There are over 90 talented authors represented in this volume. Many are seasoned writers while some are being published for the first time. Don't miss your chance to experience this rare treasure. Here's what others had to say about previous editions: I'm reading--and enjoying--the Goose River Anthology, 2015 and want to thank you for your extensive work of publishing contemporary writing year after year. You are in the middle of working hard at the anthology 2016 right now. If you get to the point of being very tired and wondering if the work is worth it, just remember that there are a lot of writers out there who appreciate you. I'm one of them. Thank you! --(Sister) Irene Zimmerman ancillapoet@gmail.com Deborah J. Benner is a remarkable editor and publisher. I have had the pleasure and privilege of being associated with the Goose River Anthology series for a number of years. Each Goose River Anthology is constructed on a solid foundation of enjoyment and professionalism which then transcends the newest collection to an even higher standard of quality. If you have ever read comments by readers of this series, you will note numerous descriptions that are continually reinforced: "entertaining"; "delightful"; "honest"; "heartfelt"; "beautiful"; "refreshing"; "mesmerizing"; and "literary treasures." The appearance of each new anthology increases the excitement and praise. Presently, Goose River Anthology can claim an international readership while maintaining its unique American "heartland" voice. --Steven Troyanvich stephen.troyanovich@att.net
