Английская Википедия:Dinaane Debut Fiction Award
Шаблон:Use dmy dates The Dinaane Debut Fiction Award – formerly the European Union Literary Award – is a South African literary award,[1] open to South African and SADCШаблон:CN writers who are residents of these countries. The manuscripts that are submitted must be a first, unpublished work of fiction in English,[2] or translations of other South African languages into English providing the work has not been published in other languages. The word "dinaane" means "telling our stories together" in Setswana, says Jacana.[1]
In 2015, the European Union Literary Award was renamed the Dinaane Debut Fiction Award.[1] It is supported by various European Union embassies and commissions operating in South Africa. The winner is awarded a cash prize of R35 000.00 along with publication of their manuscript with Jacana Media. In honour of Gerald Kraak, who helped run Jacana Media until his death in 2014,[3] the Kraak Writing Grant is also awarded. The grant is awarded to an entrant whose manuscript showed great promise and who would most benefit from a three-month mentorship with an industry-leading mentor. The Dinaane Debut Fiction Award was first given in 2004.[1]
