Survivor Chronicles is a small independent publication that seeks to represent writing (poetry, short fiction, non fiction) and art that has been part of the process of trauma survival.
It is open to everyone who has survived trauma or watched someone close survive trauma, and has created art as a part of the process. We seek to represent marginalized voices, in their purest, rawest, most sublime forms.
This is a survivor’s record of the every day struggle and triumph of survival; an artist’s view of art as art, art as therapy, art as a chronicle.
My daughter is the tramua survivor 25 times over. I am the tramua survivor watcher, I have used many forms of art in an attempt to calm the ache of helplessness. But untill I read this I never really thought about it in this way. I will be paying attention to Survivor Chronicles from now on.
I love your new site. I need to come back more often and submit more poems. Thanks for being here.
By the way, there are several sites on Facebook where people come to tell and cry and rant about their grief. I think your site could be very helpful as a creative outlet for them.
