V.9 SUBMISSIONS
SUBMISSION DEADLINE 6.26.26

 

We haven’t been over to the Pacific Northwest in a while. Too long if you ask me. There’s a feeling that comes along with the PNW that’s not far off from the Northern East Coast or the Northwoods of the Midwest. In the PNW, the air feels... mossy. Seaspray floats like the clouds that roll from the Sound into the valleys of the Cascades. The wool blanket in the back of your car is your best friend, the coast glows with campfires, and mountain tops are speckled with old fire lookouts.

 

For DAYBREAK V.9, we’re getting cozy on the coast, wandering into deep green woods, and lighting a fire in the sand. We think you should tag along. For V.9, we’re looking for submitted stories around the ideas of “beach bonfires,” “coastal cozy,” “cabin core,” “wool blankets,” “dense forest,” and “mossy driftwood.”

 

All submissions should include:

 

High Resolution Images: Imagery submissions should be high-resolution (JPEG) files that are at least 300 DPI. Submissions should be at least 2500 pixels on the longest side.     

 

Complete or Thoroughly Outlined Narrative/Essay/Article/Etc.   

 

All submissions should tell a complete story. Likely, that will require a written element. Written work should be between 600 and 2000 words and submitted as a Microsoft document. (Rules are meant to be broken.)   

 

With all files, please include your last name in the file nomenclature. 

 

Please send submissions and questions to info@daybreakpub.com.
