WELCOME
Sea to Sky Review is published 2-3 times a year. We are currently planning an issue for April 2024. Our theme will be Other Worlds.
Travel requires that we step away from our known worlds and discover other worlds. Dreams send us spinning into other worlds. Science can take us to other worlds. As always, interpretation is up to the writer!
Send us your poetry, art, photography and prose. We look forward to publishing your excellent work.
Introduction
Sea to Sky Review is an electronic journal devoted to showcasing great writing from British Columbia, Canada, as well as the world. We are a literary journal featuring poetry and prose, but we also welcome interviews and reviews, artwork and photography. Send us your pitch!
We accept and publish submissions by all English language writers everywhere.
Sea to Sky Review does not currently pay contributors. We do guarantee that your work will remain on our domain permanently, and it will be in good company; all of the work in Sea to Sky Review will undergo a rigorous submission process. Our hope is that we can eventually offer a print journal anthology once a year.
We publish 2-3 issues per year. Each issue is promoted through twitter, facebook, and on various online workshops.
Content
Sea to Sky Review is interested in poetry and prose (fiction, non-fiction). We also welcome interviews and reviews, artwork and photography. Our goal is to create a magazine of interest to all kinds of readers.
Because we are an online journal, there are no restrictions as to length however please be aware we favour short prose (under 2000 words) over longer pieces.
Rights
Please send us only previously unpublished written works. Publication in print, online in any other electronic journal or contest or blog or social media account are all considered previously published. However, this does not include pieces worked on in an online workshop. If you're not sure, please drop us a line at seatoskyreview@gmail.com
Sea to Sky Review acquires First World Electronic (Online/Internet) Rights: a one time, non-exclusive use of Electronic Rights, with all rights reverting to the author upon publication. Should an author choose to re-publish work elsewhere, in print or on the web, we ask that Sea to Sky Review be credited as the original publisher.
Photography and Artwork can be previously published - we do not require first world rights to this kind of submission.
Criteria
Every submission will receive equal reading. Most issues will have a theme but writers of all ages, genders, cultures, and lifestyles are invited to submit.
How to Submit
We have discontinued our Submittable interface and are now barrier-free! Please submit your writings, artwork, reviews, and photography directly to us BY EMAIL seatoskyreview@gmail.com.
Deadlines
Sea to Sky Review publishes two or three times a year. Our first issue was published April 10th, 2018. At the moment, we have no deadlines for submission. We will attempt to reply to your submission within 2-3 months.
Will you send feedback?
Typically we will not provide feedback and/or critiques to our submitters, due to the time demands required by this process. Yes there are 7 billion humans on the planet, and probably at least 7 billion poems and 7 billion stories, but each piece is vitally important - to you, to your history, and to the world. We are deeply grateful for all submissions, and sincerely wish everyone the best of luck with their work.
The Editing Process
Please submit your work in what you consider to be a finished state at the time of submission. We do accept revisions, preferably before publication, although we have been known to correct small errors post-launch.
Removing Old Work
Poems, prose, and any artwork or photos, once published, will remain on our domain permanently. Similar to printed journals, we will not be able to remove anything from any issue.
Simultaneous Submissions
We have no problem with simultaneous submissions. Please withdraw your submission, via Email, if you receive acceptance elsewhere. Thankyou! seatoskyreview@gmail.com
