Tidal Echoes FAQs
When and where should my work be submitted? All work for the 2014 edition of the journal must be submitted by December 1st, 2013. Work should be submitted via email, to tidalechoes@uas.alaska.edu. If this is not possible, hard copies may be submitted to:
Tidal Echoes c/o Virginia Berg
UAS Humanities Department
Soboleff Building
11120 Glacier Highway
Juneau, AK 99801
I'm interested in participating, but I don't live in Juneau. Am I still able to submit? Yes. Students and community members who currently reside in Southeast Alaska are welcome to submit their work
I'm a UAS student currently doing a semester/year abroad. Can I still submit? Yes! Any student who is currently enrolled full- or part-time at any UAS campus is eligible to submit.
I used to live in Southeast Alaska, but have since moved. Can I submit? Unfortunately, no. Tidal Echoes submissions are limited to current UAS students and those living in Southeast.
Does my work have to be about Alaska to be published in Tidal Echoes? Absolutely not. While we welcome and encourage Native authors, artists, and Alaskan enthusiasts to submit, the journal is by no means confined to publishing works about Alaska. It is our belief that Tidal Echoes should be as diverse as its readers, and as such, we hope to include a wide variety of perspectives.
I want to submit my artwork to Tidal Echoes. How do I do that? Tidal Echoes accepts art in all mediums, both two- and three-dimensional. Both must be submitted in digital format. To submit your two-dimensional artwork, scan it to create the digital image. For three-dimensional art, take a digital photograph (300 DPI). Both digital images may be submitted as attachments in an email, or submitted on a disc. For further questions, contact Pedar Dalthorp (pedar.dalthorp@uas.alaska.edu).
Does submitting my piece to Tidal Echoes mean I'm selling the rights to it? No. At no point does your submission to the journal mean that you are giving up the rights to your work. Submitting your piece to the journal does, however, mean that Tidal Echoes also retains first time North American Rights. Simply put, this means that if you submit your piece to another publication in North America, credit must be given to Tidal Echoes as first-time publisher.
My submission was previously published in another journal. Can I still submit it? Absolutely, provided you retain first time rights. Just be sure to include information about the first publication
