Women’s Web is saying Goodbye! Please make sure you read this important notification.
She is many things - a poet, a writer, a woman. But at the moment that she watches her tiny child playing near her, she is just a mother!
She is many things – a poet, a writer, a career woman. But at the moment that she watches her tiny child playing near her, she is just a mother!
Glittery words resonate in her thoughts
longing to dwell in the heart of many hearts,
she carries the specks of passion in her palms,
the ageing pages of her composition;
yes! yes! a terrific poet she is. A deserving one,
that glory, those celebrations,
no, no, she hasn’t forgotten that…
A terrific homemaker. A brilliant mother.
But, why has no one said that…?
Smile adorns her eyes
as she watches him gambol over there,
in the manicured garden, catching a few golden rays,
she turns around once again,
those ageing words and pages….
you will have to wait, she says.

Dear Women’s Web Community Member,
You may have wondered at our being on the quieter side during the last couple of months. Thank you for your patience, and we wanted to come back to you with a detailed note on what’s been happening at our end of things.
When we first began Women’s Web, as a blog from one woman’s desk along with a few like-minded souls, little could we have imagined the heights that it would soar to. Over the years, Women’s Web has published over 20000 stories (almost all by women), empowered countless women with the ideas, community and resources to chase their dreams, employed hundreds of women in core and project-based roles, and in the process, emerged as the OG women’s community in India. It has also inspired many others to build communities of a similar nature, all enabling women (and other-underrepresented groups) in their own ways.
