I am thrilled that my weird essay about woods, cruising, birding, and the hot minks of Sunbury PA found a home in Thomasonian Journal. I look forward to digging into the other pieces. Here is mine: POSTED KEEP OUT! NO TRESPASSING readthomasonian.my.canva.site/issue-2/post...

IT’S HERE: Thomasonian Issue II! Kick back and take a stroll through the natural world with these poems, photos, and nonfiction. Thank you to our lovely contributors who have trusted us with their fantastic work. You can find Issue II at thomasonian.com/read

Introducing our Issue II Contributors!!! We’re psyched to share a bunch of thoughtful pieces and perspectives by these brilliant humans soon!

Hey, our website is back up and running, just in time to let you know that Thomasonian is closing Issue II nonfiction submissions on May 1st! Visit thomasonian.com/submit to send something nature and/or science related our way.

Love this story of sunflower-growing and child-raising and husband-divorcing by @lorifontanes.bsky.social in @thomasonianmag.bsky.social "I'd begun to understand the importance of our sunflower bed as a neighborhood sanctuary in a sea of chemically treated lawns." thomasonian.com/lm-fontanes

Poetry and photography submissions are officially CLOSED! Pieces submitted before today are still being considered. If you missed the deadline, hold on to those pics and poems for Issue 3 😉 We are still open for NONFICTION! That’s essays, CNF, memoirs, etc! Send us that prose and tell your friends!

Check out our new interview with Sophia Indelicato & Bethany Cutkomp, who share their insights into @thomasonianmag.bsky.social, a publication showcasing knowledge about the natural world. Get it here: wildroofjournal.substack.com/p/plotting-t... @ellisedenauthor.bsky.social

Our editors had a wonderful time answering interview questions from some of our Issue One contributors for Wild Roof Journal’s Substack! wildroofjournal.substack.com/p/plotting-t...

We are in difficult times right now. Thomasonian would like to extend the Issue II deadline until further notice to give grace to anyone that has not had a chance to submit. Stay tuned for some fun stuff in the near future and keep sending your nature and science writing our way!

Is it really almost the end of Issue II submissions? Time flies when you’re reading excellent work! If you were still planning to send us something, it’s not too late! The Thomasonian Team is eager to read your last-minute nature and science pieces. #litmag #naturewriting #photography

In the rings of a tree, we read time; in their absence, we feel the weight of our unmaking: a poem about trees, silence, and loss. Thankful to the editors of @thomasonianmag.bsky.social for publishing my poem, 'What We've Unmade,' in their inaugural issue.

GREAT news! Two of my poems have been accepted to be published in the inaugural issue of @thomasonianmag.bsky.social #poetry #science

Didn't plan to be this messy, but here we are ...

Submissions for Issue I are now closed. Thank you for trusting us with your work! We will now bring any remaining submissions to the lab to study and send out final responses soon. Keep an eye out for Issue I releasing later this summer. It's going to be a good one!

Everything sucks so here's a pic of a frog on a lily pad in bloom.

It's been a thrilling first-ever submissions window for the Thomasonian team but, as they say, all good things must come to an end... But not for a couple days! Send us those nature nonfiction pieces, poems, or pics. We'd love to be OVERWHELMED with your last-minute submissions!

I love jacaranda trees; they always remind me of warm spring evenings in my southern California college days. They're also Latin American immigrants. To see video of a volunteer medic treating a police-wounded stranger (bystander) under a streetlight & jacaranda blossom in LA last night is stunning.

We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep. William James

We are craving more creative nonfiction submissions! Tell your friends!

It's World Environment Day. Plant a tree, watch it grow. #WorldEnvironmentDay

A walk in nature can improve our mental and physical health. On this World Environment Day, let’s commit to loving and respecting the environment. #worldEnvironmentday

Happy World Environment Day!!! Channel Islands National Park is home to the only Brown Pelican nesting colony in the western USA! Brown Pelicans can live as long as 40 years, so the brown headed juveniles like the bird in the 2nd photo may have a long life ahead of it! #birds #Environment #nature

Does anyone else have nature obsession? Where you go outside for two minutes and then find yourself staring at seedlings or bees for an hour, when you really should be doing something more productive 🤔

Our EIC returns from off the grid very soon, which means that it's almost THOMASONIAN TIME (aka, yapping and raving about your submissions before sending out more responses 💚)

Calling all photographers! Have you or your friends ever taken cool nature/science pictures? Send them our way! (See reply for details)
