We run on the desire to find unique voices from all over the world who can inspire us with their stories. We especially welcome those writers from disadvantaged backgrounds and we are always on the lookout for diverse voices.

We are a new publication and as such our editorial team is greatly understaffed. Please rest assured all your emails and messages are read and we will respond as soon as we can.

We run a monthly competition with one winner in each category being published at the end of each month.

Competition submission guidelines:

Our monthly competition focuses on the work of sci-fi, fantasy and general fiction.

The word limit: 2000 words.

The winning entries will be published on our new website, the winners will be sent a digital certificate and promoted across our social media platforms.

If you prefer sending the submission via email rather than the form below please send your submission to info@andromedamagazine.com

Please paste your story in the body of the email alongside a short bio/couple of sentences about who you are and don’t forget to indicate the category of your short story. Make sure to include your name and contact details. NO ATTACHMENTS. All attachments will be deleted immediately.

We don’t accept submissions containing sexually explicit language.

Submissions can be made from 10 a.m. UK time on the opening day until midnight UK time on the closing day.

We accept simultaneous submissions but please let us know if you work has been previously published.

Winners will be notified via email and are requested to acknowledge and accept the award within a five-day window from the time of notification. It is important to be aware that not responding within this designated period may lead to the selection of an alternate winner.

We don’t accept non-fiction submissions at this time.
