Have you tried being a little plant today?

Turn to face the sun? Shake your leaves? Let your roots carry you? Drink your water? Crawl and grow even in impossible environments that defy physics and tangle yourself around people’s necks?

No? What’s stopping you?

Estuaries, rivers, oceans... what will await you when you go under the water's surface? We're looking for pieces that bring all tales of water and watery creatures to the surface. Give us your bog bodies, your kelpies, your tidal waves, and everything in between. If it's water-logged, we want it!
