The Silent Battle: Low Self-Esteem and Its Impact

-
Last night, we had a discussion that struck a deep chord with many of us—low self-esteem. It was eye-opening to realize how many people in our community have experienced it at some point or are still battling it today. As members shared their personal definitions and real-life experiences, it became clear that low self-esteem isn’t just a fleeting feeling—it’s a persistent struggle that shapes how we see ourselves and interact with the world. It affects confidence, decision-making, relationships, and even mental health. This is why conversations like these matter. Because low self-esteem isn’t just an emotional struggle—it can lead to deeper issues like anxiety, depression, and even suicidal thoughts. Ignoring it won’t make it go away. Understanding it, however, is the first step to overcoming it. Signs of Low Self-Esteem Recognizing the signs is crucial. Some people don’t even realize they’re dealing with low self-esteem until they see their own struggles reflected in others. Behavior...

YWW members create a masterpiece

-
The night of Saturday, December 21, 2024, was nothing short of magical for YWW members. We gathered for a story-building game that turned out to be an adventure of creativity, humor, and a little bit of chaos. The rules? Simple. Each participant could change the flow of the story with just a few sentences. The results? Mind-blowing. The first round kicked off with an intriguing opener: She walked into the room and froze—the guy wasn’t human. From that one line, the story took off like a rocket. The next participant added a delicious twist: The one true love of her life wasn’t human! She felt the shock waves run through her veins as she watched him slice through the chunk of meat. Swallowing it down like it was nothing. He was a glutton. Boom! Suddenly, we had a romance—a strange one, but a romance nonetheless. The third participant took things to the next level: She watched on in total horror... How can that be?? They've been together for years and she didn't… never found out f...

Would You Rather: YWW Community Edition

-
  Hello, my beautiful writers! It’s time to have some fun and make some tough decisions about our writing lives. Grab your snacks (we don’t judge what you eat) and let’s dive into some “Would You Rather” questions. We all share one thing: the eternal struggle of being a writer. 😂 --- 1. Would you rather... a. Write a love scene in your WIP and have your family “accidentally” find your draft, or b. Write a shady Twitter thread that goes viral, only to find out your parents are following you? Why? Love scenes are universally awkward when family members find them. But the Twitter drama? Your followers will roast you faster than you can say "I wish I was in my book world." --- 2. Would you rather... a. Write an entire novel that gets rejected because it’s “too local” (and you’re like, “But this is my culture!”), or b. Write a book that no one in your family understands because you used too much slang from your country? Why? Some of you might feel like your book is too Nigerian, ...
