As of now I know of Sub-Saharan publishers and one or two involved in publishing novels. and even that you really have to be an already published author. I hope things do change. I hate it as it is.ImageNationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06021414643103601330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29803016.post-11185877471356236862010-11-08T15:05:52.415+00:002010-11-08T15:05:52.415+00:00Kudos to Bill Burt for funding this competition.

I wonder how many Business Tycoons and rich men in Ghana would fund a whole literary award in Ghana???????<br />Bill Burt, I pray that God continues to increase your wealth.

It's really hard to find works by writers still living in their home countries, at least from way over here.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102250492155489672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29803016.post-10471285798817359502010-11-08T14:41:18.491+00:002010-11-08T14:41:18.491+00:00Yes Amy it is a huge money even when converted int...Yes Amy it is a huge money even when converted into dollars. And yes I am happy it restricts the participation to Ghanaians living in Ghana. What i have found out is that most Ghanaian/African authors live outside the continent. As they claim it is the only way to make a breakthrough. Hope this would help all aspiring writers.ImageNationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06021414643103601330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29803016.post-24386337551348422632010-11-08T13:23:18.249+00:002010-11-08T13:23:18.249+00:00What a great award!

And I do hope the winners do get co-published in Canada so that I can pick them up as well :)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102250492155489672noreply@blogger.com
