Last year I participated in the Reverb10 prompts, and had a lot of fun doing so. It is nice to be able to reflect back over the past year and review my life. It’s also great to be able to go back through Reverb10 and see where I was last year as well.
About 1,000 writers “reverbed” when blogger Gwen Bell created the Reverb project in December 2009. Over 6,000 participated last year; I was one of them.
This year, shall be easier but challenging none the less. Since this year’s Reverb isn’t being hosted by one individual, I searched and compiled some of the more thought inspiring questions and built my own list from those available.
Thank you Elephant Journal and Be Healthy, Well, & Inspired
