The primary point of this is to share and dialogue against genocide and fascism. Every month, one entry will be chosen as the winner. The first winner will be announced on 12 July 2019.

Real or imaginative. Write from your gut. Keep it real and raw. Do not plagiarise. Play with your words. If you feel impacted, you are surely going to impact us.

2. The Wattpad writer will receive a permanent follow from us and a mention in this book
