About RiPPLE
RiPPLE: Kingston University’s Annual Student Anthology
RiPPLE is Kingston University’s annual anthology, celebrating the creative talent of its students. Open to all current KU students, it features a diverse collection of written and visual works, offering a platform for literary and artistic expression.
Each year, a dedicated team of postgraduate volunteers from Publishing, Creative Writing, English Literature, and Art & Design programs take on the challenge of bringing RiPPLE to life. Their responsibilities span every aspect of the production – from collecting submissions and curating content, to designing, editing, and marketing the final publication.
Proudly published by Kingston University Press, RiPPLE has been a creative tradition of the university for over 20 years. Each volume showcases the exceptional work being produced by students at all stages of their academic journey, providing a snapshot of the vibrant creativity within Kingston University.
A fresh editorial team reinvents the anthology annually, shaping it from the ground up – right down to the font.
Interested in being featured? Submissions for RiPPLE 2026 are now open! Students from all areas are encouraged to send their written and visual work. Whether it’s poetry, short fiction, essays, photography, or artwork, we want to see your creativity.
