Womanhood Stories

She sits at crowded tables, drinks countless glasses of wine, and convinces herself that he loves her. That's what this city is for, isn't it? Reinvention? ***** Sixteenth Street is only supposed to be a job for her to afford the bills in the new city she now calls home. What she doesn't expect is to fall head over heels for a man with enough experience - both in the restaurant and in life - to make her forget the real reason she moved to this new city in the first place. Intoxicated by the world of fine dining and men who taste like her new favorite poison, she finds herself lost and in waiting - for him, for the guests, and, most importantly, for herself. ***** OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST 2026 -- prompts 28 & 29

"This is more than just a true story of love. It is an exploration into the abyss of a lover's complex psyche-a detailed dissection of an innocent woman's boundless devotion as she collides with a mind that takes on a thousand masks. It is the story of a soul that perished in the name of love, only to rebuild a resilient life from the very same ashes. ​An impartial mirror reflecting a breathtaking humanity, caught in the crossfire between an ungovernable heart and the nature of obsession. This is a psychological autopsy of the fatal battle between the mind and the heart." "Based on a true story"

A man who feels like fate. A love that sounds like care. A story never questioned. This is not a romance. It's the moment before a woman disappears into one. This is my entry for the „Wuthering Heights" Reimagined Contest. Gentle readers welcome - honest critique even more. If something here feels familiar, that's not an accident ;)

Not all women are tested by loss. Some are tested by waiting. She is a wife who loves quietly, prays without noise, and waits for a child without knowing when. Surrounded by questions, comparisons, and unspoken fears, she learns that her worth is not defined by her womb, but by her faith, her love, and her courage to remain gentle in a difficult season. Waiting in Quiet Faith is a reflective monologue novel about womanhood, marriage, prayer, and surrender- a story for anyone who has ever waited and learned to trust God in the silence.

When Anita's mother dies, the heart monitor flattens into a straight line - a line her mother could never draw. That moment changes everything. At sixteen, Anita becomes the mother of three siblings in the soot-stained city of Port Harcourt. While other girls dream of school and love, she learns to trade both for survival - selling zobo by the roadside, burying her tears beneath duty. Life takes more than it gives: her father, her dreams, her body, her freedom. When a boy named Kenneth offers her a glimpse of tenderness, it feels almost like healing - until loss returns, sharper than before. From the farms of the village to the glittering loneliness of the city, Anita's life becomes a series of choices made in the dark, each one carving her into someone she never planned to be. In Straight Lines, I tell a story of womanhood, survival, and the cruel poetry of fate - where love comes too late, and the lines we draw to hold ourselves together don't always stay straight. #1 rightpersonwrongtime - Jan 6th, 2026 #1 teenagehood - Jan 6th, 2026 Started: 29th October, 2025 Ended: ... #JusticeforOchanya
