[F4M] Looking for post-apocalyptic stories set in the 1900s-50s

Heya! 21+ female here in search of a writing partner! I’m hoping to find someone who is interested in writing a post-apocalyptic story. As for my ideas, I ended up keeping them somewhat vague so we can discuss them and adapt it into something that we’re both interested in. While the ideas are largely set in the first half of the 20th century, I’m also open to exploring both modern and other eras.

Writer must be:

• Over the age of 21
• Comfortable with dark and mature themes
• Okay with writing in third person
• Open to using Discord for our roleplay
• Bonus points if you like to make Pinterest boards
• Okay with 80/20 plot to smut ratio

Some of the many ideas:

➣ WW2

1. The Wolf at the Door - Set in German-occupied France, 1944. A wounded Wehrmacht officer hides in a French farmhouse, where a local woman reluctantly shelters him out of necessity. As a virus spread across the countryside following Allied bombing of a secret research site, they fight to survive German deserters, the undead, and advancing Allied forces while struggling with their growing attachment.

2. Iron Wolves - Set in Bavaria, 1947, after the war ends but a plague rages on. A former Wehrmacht captain leads a band of loyal men ruling over a fortified Bavarian village, keeping both raiders and infected at bay. When they rescue a young schoolteacher from the ruins, the captain claims her as his own. He does this with means of protecting her due to a sense of duty and hidden attraction. As food runs out and outsiders threaten their stronghold, she slowly sees the humanity beneath his iron exterior.

➣ Cults

1. The Prophet of Ashwood - Set in the Appalachian Mountains, USA, 1930s, after plague and war devastate the country. A decorated WWI veteran known for his battlefield sermons builds a fortified town called Ashwood. His followers see him as a prophet after his predictions of judgment came true. When a wandering woman arrives seeking shelter, she discovers a man both fearsome and magnetic, torn between faith, violence, and his growing feelings for her as rival warlords close in.

2. The Prophet’s Bride - Set in Rural Mississippi, late 1940s, after famine and plague destroy the nation. A battle-scarred WWII veteran turned preacher rules a thriving settlement called New Canaan. When a wandering woman arrives with nothing but faith and a few belongings, he declares she is the woman foretold in his visions, destined to rebuild God’s people with him. As raiders close in, she must decide whether his calling is divine… or dangerous obsession.

3. The Lamb and the Lion - Set in Texas, late 1940s, after drought and plague destroy the heartland. A former cavalry officer turned preacher-king rules a fortified ranch called New Bethlehem. He declares a woman who arrives with a traveling caravan the “Lamb of God,” sent to bring him heirs and heal his violent soul.

➣ Organized Crime

1. The Wolf of Blackwood - Set in New England, 1940s, after a mysterious disease wipes out much of the population. A crime boss-turned-warlord holds Blackwood Estate like a king, ruling with strict laws and loyal enforcers. When they rescue a young woman from raiders roaming the forests, she becomes a symbol of hope for the survivors — and for the man who built his empire out of ashes.

2. The Iron Manor - Set in Rural England, 1949, after a strange plague ends civilization. A former London crime boss turns his country estate into a fortress, sheltering his men, servants, and townsfolk behind barbed wire and armed patrols. A young schoolteacher fleeing raiders is taken in, sparking a forbidden romance as rival warlords and the undead close in on the manor gates.
