✨ Hello my beautiful writers ✨ · The Gilded Ink Parlor

✨ Hello my beautiful writers ✨

I’ve been a little MIA lately — between the holidays and being sick, I’ve been moving slower than usual (and surviving off tea and stubbornness 😮‍💨☕).

But coming back in and seeing this space flourishing? Seeing you all sharing work, encouraging each other, showing up with your voices and your bravery?

It genuinely makes my heart swell.

So first — WELCOME to all of our new members. 🖤

I’m so happy you’re here, and I’m so excited to see what you bring into this Parlor.

Now… because we’re writers and we heal by bleeding ink:

🗝️ Writing Prompt:

Write a poem that includes these three things:

a key

a shadow

a promise

It can be literal or symbolic.

It can be tender, eerie, romantic, furious, soft, or haunting.

It can be the key to freedom… or the key to a door you should’ve never opened.
