My name is Rubab Zahra, a 21-year-old writer from Rawalpindi, Pakistan. For me, writing has never just been about ink on paper... it’s been survival, healing, and defiance. It is how I make sense of the world and how I leave my mark on it.
In this anthology, I open a window into the unfiltered experiences of being a woman in a world that often demands silence. These pieces are born from my personal truths, but they carry the weight and strength of many unheard voices around me. From whispered fears to unshaken resilience, each word reflects the quiet power that comes from being both vulnerable and unbreakable.
This is more than just a collection of thoughts, it is a reclaiming of space, of voice, and of worth. If my words make you pause, reflect, or feel seen, then I’ve done what I came here to do.
