tender rebellion
2025, december 4
sharing my favourite prompt from my last schreibsalon aka writing night:
tender rebellion | 12 min
set your timer for 12 minutes and start writing about your moment of tender rebellion. think of a moment when you quietly refused to follow an expectation – maybe you rested instead of working, answered differently than people expected, wore something “wrong”, or protected your own needs. describe this small act of tender rebellion. what exactly did you do (or not do)? how did the scene look, sound, feel? let the text show both: the tenderness and the rebellion.
(if you write fiction, let your character answer this prompt)
