Since you enjoyed the last “short” stories I posted I’m planning to share another one soon. I’ve got a few ideas on the table, some old, some new... Choose wisely:
'50s housewife: A brilliant ethnic female scientist uses experimental technology to prove life is easier as a white woman. But the experiment goes awry, catapulting her directly into the rigid social landscape of 1950s America. [RC, time travel]
The Real Cleopatra: A Black female revisionist historian, who fiercely advocates for Cleopatra's African heritage, is suddenly transported back in time. She awakens as the real Cleopatra, a monarch of Hellenistic Greek descent. [Time Travel, RC]
NGO worker to Syrian wife: A progressive German NGO worker in Syria is caught in a sudden conflict. To survive, she must assume the role of a devout Muslim wife [cultural change, RC?]
Metabolism curse: A fatphobic, skinny blonde insults the curvy Latina her boyfriend cheated with and ends up cursed with a new metabolism, and a body she hates. [WG, RC?]
Liberal bi girl to Amish: A free-spirited young woman finds herself immersed in a closed, traditional Amish community after a car accident, with no memories of herself. Luckily for her a loving childless couple is eager to help her. [Orientation change, memory loss]
