Send us a ‘Postcard’!
In each issue of Dakotafire and regularly online at Dakotafire.net, we will feature a “Postcard”—a short, evocative story about an event, person or place, written as if you were telling the story to a friend.
Some ideas: hunting stories, the highlight of a big game, a walk through the field, or a moment in history. Check out two great examples here [1] and here [2]. If you can match the Postcard to the season of the next issue, that would be great. But if your idea doesn’t fit a particular season, send it anyway!
Stories should in some way relate to Dakotafire’s coverage area [3] and should be about 300-400 words. The story must have a photo to accompany it. Digital images (a minimum of 1000 pixels wide) are preferred; you can also send a photo by mail.
E-mail submissions to heidi@dakotafire.net. or mail to Dakotafire Media. Postcard Submission. PO Box 603, Frederick, SD 57441.
We are looking forward to hearing from you!
