Usually, to keep my post short and sweet, I give you what I hope is an inspiring quote. But today I'm doing something a little different.
I saw this Meme on Denise Covey's blog and really liked it. Thought I'd try it out for IWSG. I don't know why, but I felt uplifted after doing it. I think you could take any one or all of these and use them as writing prompts, or for journaling, or flash fiction. Think about writing from the POV of a season or a planet. Think about being a tree or flower. Think about being a food, smell, or object.
Feel free to copy and paste it to your own blog. Don't overthink the answers. And remember, there are no wrong answers.
