Everyone falls in love... but what happens when the love you’re hiding could destroy everything?
In this contest, we challenge you to write a story where romance and danger collide. Let love bloom in the shadows between enemies, within a scandal, or in the midst of a crime no one dares speak of.
Make us feel the passion, the fear, the temptation… and the price they must pay.
Genres allowed: Romance, Drama, Thriller (or a blend of all!)
Word count: 800 – 5000 words
Language: English or Kiswahili
Deadline: 3 weeks
Prize: Winner gets a full feature on the Penana front page + special shoutout.
💡 Sample Teaser (Just for Inspiration):
"He was the detective. She was the suspect. Falling in love was not part of the plan..."
Now it’s your turn: surprise us, thrill us, and break our hearts.
