As part of the 2024 Fundza Fellowship, our writers were tasked with creating long fiction pieces, each spanning between 1,000 and 4,000 words. These stories allow for deeper storytelling, offering rich characters, and engaging plots.

This year’s collection includes a wide range of stories, from gripping mysteries and emotional dramas to unexpected twists that will keep you hooked. There’s a little something for everyone!

Take a read and enjoy what our creative cohort has produced. Remember to comment on your favourite one!
