The Mslexia Women Short Story Competition is back for its eleventh year. This time, not only will the winning writer get £3,000, they will also have the prestige of being published in Mslexia, a credit shared with writers like Costa winner Angela Readman and novelist Peggy Riley.

It is International Women’s Day. Today, we appreciate all women around us. For more than 100 years, women have celebrated The International Women’s day worldwide, in a bid to celebrate our struggle for gender equality and also to celebrate our achievements as women.

On this special day, celebrating with women all over the world, we would also like you to read the interview with Gusi Tobby, founder of Girl Hub Africa, she is an inspiration to many women.
