About Anthill
A home for Zambian stories
Anthill connects Zambian writers with readers who want stories that reflect their lives, languages, and spaces.
Why we exist
Rich stories need readers, and readers need more stories from home.
Anthill was built for the gap between those two things.
We have rich stories that need readers and we have readers who do not have enough stories from our country. This is where Anthill fits.
Zambian authors can upload their original, captivating fiction onto the platform and attract readers for their pieces. Readers search through the library, pay a small price for a story, and begin reading in their own time.
Anthill is managed by Zambian authors interested in seeing other Zambian writers succeed.
