The Daily Aftershock (Writing Prompt)

DAY 5 — WRITE THE RETURN


Listen Later

Welcome to The Daily Aftershock Writing Prompt—a daily invitation to write from the edges of aftermath, memory, rupture, and repair.

Each day, you'll receive a short, charged prompt designed to crack something open. There are no rules, only resonance. Use these however you need: to begin a poem, to open your diary, to find your voice again.

The Aftershock Review is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

Write the moment after.The breath that comes back.The text you send.The first laugh.The feeling when you realise you made it through.

It doesn’t have to be triumphant.It can be soft. Uneven. Tentative.But that day something rose.Tell us what.
