Summary: The plots of contemporary Brazilian literature have showcased a
diversity of mediums used for literary publication, particularly the editorial
technologies managed by Black female writers. Consequently, the main objective of
this work was to identify the authors who publish independently as “ganhadeiras
literárias”, presenting their projects and some literary excerpts from their works. The
corpus of this study is composed of Deisiane Barbosa, with her work “Cartas a
Tereza” (2021), alongside her editorial project Andarilha Edições, and the poet
tatiana nascimento, with her work “Palavra Preta” (2021), who is responsible for the
publishing house Padê Editorial. By reclaiming the image and the designation of
“ganhadeiras” for the context of contemporary literary productions, I intended to
weaken the colonial-origin designation and enhance it with new terms and concepts:
the “tabuleiro” as an editorial technology for publication, the “alimento” marketed in
written literature, and the “cabeça” that carries the tabuleiro as a source for
intellectual and artistic production. The study highlighted experiences that showcase
literary productions filled with a diversity of flavors, smells, and textures that enrich
the publishing market, contemporary literature, and the diasporic Black imagination.
