Wake of the Twister

Write a narrative describing the aftermath of a devastating tornado.

This prompt is all about the human capacity for resilience and survival in the face of natural disasters. The focus isn’t on the event itself, but rather on the impacts and responses afterwards. How do the characters react, what immediate measures do they take, and what longer-term plans formulate? How does hope persist amidst such devastation? This prompt encourages exploration of human resilience, the power of community support, and the themes of loss and rebuilding.
