Short Story Day Africa brings together writers, readers, booksellers, publishers, teachers, and schoolchildren to write, submit, read, workshop, and discuss stories which explore true and alternative African culture. Their fourth annual competition and anthology is on the theme of migration. Featuring an ever-widening range of writers from across the continent these are fresh, urgent perspectives on one of our most profound phenomena.

It includes shortlisted stories by Sibongile Fisher (South Africa), Mirette Bahgat Eskaros (Egypt), Blaize Kaye (South Africa), Megan Ross (South Africa), Stacy Hardy (South Africa), TJ Benson (Nigeria), and fifteen other up-and-coming writers.
