Editorial Fundza will be accepting original manuscripts from November 25 to November 30, 2024, for publication throughout the coming year. This initiative, part of Fundza's 4th Literary Call, aims to select unpublished works in children's literature, novels, chronicles, poetry, and short stories.
Authors interested in participating in the fourth literary call by Editorial Fundza should submit a book project in Word format, a 10-line synopsis of the work, and a 5-line biography to editorial.fundza@gmail.com.
The main goal of this literary call is to open and expand opportunities for democratizing access to the publication of literary works in Mozambique, allowing participation from authors across all provinces. Since 2022, the initiative has revealed new voices in Mozambican literature, with over 40 new authors published from across the country.
Published works include "Black Petals or the Shadow of the Inanimate" (poetry) by Belmiro Mouzinho; "Stories Brought by the Wind" (short stories) by Adelino Albano Luís; "The Charm of Poetr" (poetry) by Assane Cadry; "The Newsboy with Worn Shoe" (short stories) by Alerto Bia; "The Dictionary of Survival" (short stories) by Francisco Raposo; "The Girl Without a Reflection" (motivational) by Clévia Guivala; *Insist on Ignoring Me* (motivational) by Argentina Banze; "The Love Within You" (novel) by Larsan Mendes; *The Masks of Truth* (novel) by Almeida Cumbane; "Prince Suehtam and Aruella in Tulipix" (children's literature) by Andreia Edna da Silva; "The Fish Who Dreamed of Buying a Boat" (children's literature) by Japone Arijuane; and "Makhalelo" (chronicles) by Adriano Félix.
Manuscripts submitted to Fundza's literary call are reviewed by a competent jury selected by the publisher. Before publication, all manuscripts undergo a careful editorial process.
