Sea To Sky

Journal

words & art

We’re looking for work that makes us stop, smile, think — or tilt our heads and wonder what we’re looking at.

Inspired by the spirit of illustrated poetry and playful page design, Sea to Sky Journal brings together words and images in a way that feels simple, thoughtful, and a little unexpected.

Submissions close May 31

Send us pieces that are:

  • visual, playful, or surprising

  • rooted in place — or drifting somewhere new

  • simple, layered, or hard to define

  • words, images, or something in between

We love work that feels like:

  • a page from a notebook

  • a sketch with a story

  • a poem you can see

  • something you almost didn’t send

What to send

Poetry

  • visual / shape / layout poems welcome

Short Prose

  • up to 1000 words

  • short, strong, engaging and fun

Art & Visual Work

  • drawings, sketches, simple illustration

  • black & white or colour

  • should translate well to a printed page

Hybrid / In-Between

  • text + image combinations

  • experimental pieces

  • anything that doesn’t quite fit a category

We’re not looking for polished perfection.

We’re looking for work with personality.

If it feels honest, curious, or a little different — it’s probably a fit.
