DESIblitz Arts is a digital platform created and owned by the multi-award winning\u00a0publication DESIblitz.com which publishes editorial content related to British Asian\u00a0lifestyle with a South Asian theme.<\/p>

Having developed over hundreds of writers, journalists and video producers in digital media, DESIblitz.com has acted as a tremendous catalyst to help kick-start careers and jobs. Especially for those with ethnic and disadvantaged backgrounds.<\/p>

Using this success, DESIblitz Arts has been created to engage ethnic creatives and to give them access to a large audience to showcase their work.<\/p>

The concept of DESIblitz Arts was realised after many writers from DESIblitz.com,\u00a0and members of the British Desi community, were looking for somewhere to publish\u00a0their fictional short stories, poems and vertical comic strips that would reach\u00a0a well- established target audience.<\/p>

It became clear that a dedicated, diverse and inclusive platform was needed to help\u00a0create and support a community of like-minded writers, artists and creatives.
<\/span><\/p>

DESIblitz Arts is a digital space which has been made for this exact purpose.<\/span><\/p>

We want writers and digital artists to share their work with us and our audience,\u00a0whether it\u2019s powerful prose or beautiful poetry that deserves to be read, vertical comic strips that need to be seen, DESIblitz Arts is here as a\u00a0platform where you could get your work published and where you can become part\u00a0of a new creative writing\u00a0 family.\u00a0<\/p>

We are open to receiving submissions from all genres of short fiction, be it \u2018slice of life\u2019, romance, fantasy or science-fiction; to incredible poetry which depicts South Asian themes; to vertical comic strips which are fun or serious – either way we\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>

Most importantly DESIblitz Arts is completely free for creatives and community alike.\u00a0<\/p>

To submit works you can visit our How It Works<\/a> page.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
