Joanne answered your questions about short story writing, craft, and submissions to the Short.Sharp.Stories anthology, POWER.

POWER:

Short.Sharp.Stories invites writers to LIGHT THE DARK with their imaginative short stories around the theme of POWER: the power of speech, the power of speed, the power of electricity, the power of creation. Amandla – Power! – signifies a mighty lion’s roar.

Whether the spark is a candle flame, or casting a vote, please send in your short story of between 3000 to 5000 words, with a strong narrative drive, for this anthology to be published April/ May 2025. The emphasis of the call is to share in the celebration of South Africa’s 30-year democracy and all it has meant – positive as well as problematic – to the empowerment of the people.

Short.Sharp.Stories, an established brand, seeks to showcase top talent and emerging writers of South Africa. Send in stories by: 31 January 2025
