Write First-Person Love Tragedy

I’m commissioning a short story that unfolds entirely in the first person. The narrator—a young woman attending a government-service training class—meets a charming classmate and, after only a few days of conversation, falls into an intense, even life-changing love. The discovery that he is already married shatters her world and pulls her toward depression.

I need a writer who can capture the quick rush of infatuation, the gradual deepening of emotion, and the raw aftermath when reality intrudes. Keep the events grounded in everyday details of a government workplace or training environment so the contrast between mundane routine and overwhelming feeling feels genuine. Dialogue should sound natural, pacing should be tight, and inner monologue must convey the heroine’s hope, conflict, and eventual heartbreak with empathy rather than melodrama. Whether you lean more toward romance, drama, or outright tragedy is up to you, as long as the emotional arc remains truthful.

Deliverables
• Complete prose manuscript of the short story (editable Word or Google Doc)
• Brief author note highlighting key thematic choices
• One revision pass after my feedback to polish tone, flow, or character depth

If this premise sparks your creativity, let me see a sample of similar first-person work and tell me how you’d bring the narrator’s voice to life.
