This month’s theme – Inheritance

The legacies we are born into and the ones we leave behind. Stories and poems about the weight of inheritance, whether a trait, a secret, or a burden. The bloodlines that bind, the histories that haunt, the expectations that suffocate. Explore the pride of heritage, the scars of lineage, and the choice to accept, reject, or redefine what we inherit.
