<\/span><\/a><\/div>\nSalish Magazine<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0tells stories related to things that people can see\/hear firsthand, outdoors in our Salish Sea region. It ties specific nature topics into the larger ecosystem, and it includes lots of visuals and audio. Whether you\u2019re an aspiring or seasoned journalist, artist, scientist, storyteller, poet, musician, or photographer, we\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n The summer 2025 issue of\u00a0Salish Magazine<\/i>\u00a0will explore the colorful, the juicy, and the seedy \u2014 that is, the lives and ecological roles of berries. Here are some example topics, feel free to build from these or propose your own:<\/p>\n We hope that those suggestions trigger your imagination\u2026<\/p>\n But please note, we\u2019re looking for content about berries in our ecosystem, not about human consumption of berries.<\/p>\n Salish Magazine strives to provide an ecosystem perspective and not just concentrate on a single subject. So we ask that contributors make their stories include interconnections between things, which are an essential part of the big picture.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Please email\u00a0submissions@salishmagazine.org<\/span><\/a>\u00a0to submit a proposal or if you have questions.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n After receiving the first drafts, we will assign an editor to work with you to create the final draft. The first draft will also allow us to see what additional illustrations might be necessary, and we will issue a specific call for visuals if necessary.\u00a0<\/p>\n Please see our Style Guide for details about the style we aspire toward:<\/p>\n https:\/\/salishmagazine.org\/style-guid e\/<\/a><\/p>\n Below is a brief summary.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n We publish a short bio & photo of content contributors. Here are our bio guidelines:<\/p>\n For our readers, would you please submit a bio of around 200 words that references your experiences relevant to your contribution. It should be written in the third person. We would be happy to include a photograph of you, if you desire.<\/p>\n We would also be happy to include a relevant link to your web page, blog, or other reference that will help people find out more about you. We do not want to include advertisements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Salish Magazine<\/em>\u00a0strives to tell stories related to what people can see, or see at least parts or traces of, preferably in public forests, waters, and beaches around our Salish Sea region.<\/strong>\u00a0We hope that when our readers personally encounter those sights, the stories they have read in\u00a0Salish Magazine<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0will come to mind, enabling them to see their surroundings in a new context \u2014 one that expands their knowledge of our Salish Sea ecosystem.<\/span><\/p>\n Articles should be\u00a0easy to read for people who don\u2019t know much about the subject and be more fun than academic<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 written as if you have a big smile on your face and want to share your ideas with a bunch of fun people. But we also encourage you to include sources so that readers can have a reason to find the story credible, and they can find additional information if they are interested in learning more. Some of our articles have links in the flow of the story as well as a list of other references at the end, for example:<\/span><\/p>\n High-flying Lichen<\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n If you\u2019re more of a technical writer, we can help edit your work for our target audience. We welcome visual illustrations, and we have access to photographers and artists who can provide additional illustrations.<\/span><\/p>\n We are also trying to offer an alternative to the overwhelmingly people-centric media by not having people be the focus of our stories. We\u2019ll leave the environmental policy, advocacy, agency projects, human benefits, and \u201chow to\u201d topics to other publishers. We\u2019d like our content to tell our readers how nature works, and what they can see\/experience exploring nature.<\/span><\/p>\n You can read more about our style recommendations at: \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n We don\u2019t provide payment for submissions, but we are experimenting with small honoraria to show our appreciation.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Please look at past issues (at:\u00a0salishmagazine.org<\/span><\/a>) to familiarize yourself with the kinds of articles that we publish.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\nsummer 2025 Issue #28 theme: berries<\/b><\/h3>\n
