In celebrations of Women's History Month, we encourage all of you, people of Wattpad, to pay tribute to all the strong, extraordinary females who live in your minds and/or have hugely impacted your real life. Now is the perfect opportunity to set them free and introduce them to this world. And how else to do so than via the thing we love the most - storytelling!
The theme of your story is up to you to decide. Whether you choose to write about womanhood, motherhood, or sisterhood; whether you choose to depict women in business, in art, history, music, science, or the health department, etc. - we are here to hear your stories.
In other words...
🌟 Prompt: Write a fictional journey of a woman - or someone who feels/identifies as a woman - who was inspired by their female role model (fictional or real life figure). Write about how it empowered them and changed their life.
