Short Stories Sought by 'amaBooks

'amaBooks and Parthian Books are planning a book of Zimbabwean short stories, to be published in early 2011 in both Zimbabwe and the United Kingdom.

There is no particular theme, but we would like stories about contemporary life in Zimbabwe, preferably of around 3000+ words.

This has been an on-and-off project for a while, but we are both now committed to going ahead.

The book is to follow on from the successful Long Time Coming: Short Writings from Zimbabwe, which has had excellent reviews both inside and outside Zimbabwe, and which was chosen by New Internationalist as one of their 'Best Books of 2009'.

Please email submissions to amabooksbyo@gmail.com as early as possible, but before 15 July 2010.
