The Wives' Doctrine is a dystopian novel set in a world where women's primary value lies in their ability to bear children. Following a societal collapse, a totalitarian regime rises, imposing strict control over women's bodies and their reproductive roles. The story centers around *Evelynn Noel Jones*, a young woman forced into servitude under a doctrine that strips her of autonomy and dictates her sole purpose: to produce children for the state. As Evelynn navigates this cruel world, she endures the oppressive *Ceremony*, a ritual meant to enforce both obedience and fertility. The women, known as *Wives*, are held captive in a web of religious propaganda and rigid rules, overseen by cold matriarchs and calculating overseers who manipulate faith to justify their control. With every passing day, Evelynn must grapple with the suffocating reality of her situation, finding brief solace in the friendships of fellow captives, like the fragile Naomi and the once-defiant Rebecca.

With heavy inspiration from George Orwell's "1984", I tried to make a cool revolution story in which the main character starts a guerilla army to fight back against the Party. (By heavy inspiration, I mean it's basically a modified 1984). I write this for fun so chapter rollouts will vary in timespan but I'm aiming for one a week.
