Call for New Submissions

Bridge House Annual Anthology

Open 7 December 2024 to 28 February 2025

The theme for the 2025 is 'Magi'

We are seeking stories between 1000 and 5000 words on the subject of ‘Magi’. This could be retelling of the nativity story, an alternative telling (perhaps the Magi were all women, for instance, or maybe they didn’t give the game away to Herod), or a different interpretation of what ‘Magi’ means. It is fine to concentrate on just one wise person as this will be a collection of stories about Magi. Maybe you can even surprise us with a really quirky definition of the word.

New writers, established writers and writers we've included in other anthologies are all equally welcome.
