Ambit

There are presently no open calls for submissions.

Welcome to the AMBIT submissions portal.  

Thanks for joining us but we are currently closed.

Please sign up for our irregular email updates to find out when we will be accepting submissions, and find us on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.

All of your submissions support our work as a charity, offering ladders into literature and the arts.  

For the past few years Ambit has been edited by Kirsty Allison and a team of guest editors, readers and staff.  She is joined by designer, Stephen Barrett.

Please note we do not accept any simultaneous submissions, so please do not submit to any other publication or competition/prizes etc for our duration of reading, which we attempt to turnaround in a respectful duration.  If helps if you have knowledge of the magazine, so we encourage you to read recent issues to understand the sort of work we publish from contributors unlimited by identities, class, publication history or reputation. 

Should you have queries, please email contact@ambitmagazine.co.uk, although all submission details are here and repeated on our website.

Please note that Submittable uses American-style dates.

With best wishes, and thanks for supporting, subscribing, submitting.
