Might as well put it out here: we're in the market for a piece of beautiful, ocean-themed, weird, evocative cover art about environmental justice for Reckoning 7, our ocean-themed issue edited by @octaviacade@mastodon.nz, @priyachandwriter@wandering.shop and Tim Fab-Eme, which is forthcoming in the new year.
