A few years ago I found a book, The Book of Myself: A Do-It-Yourself Autobiography in 201 Questions. I didn't buy it then, but the idea of it has stuck with me over the years. A couple of weeks ago I found it again, along with The Book of Us: A Journal of Your Love Story in 150 Questions. This time I bought both. My hope is that both Joel and I write--using these as our guides. I am not looking for any award winning memoirs only Our Rech Story, life as we live it for us to look back on and share with our families.

To get us started, I have challenged Joel (and myself) to respond to one of the writing prompts each week here on our blog or on our personal blogs Journey by Joel or She.... If you would like to respond or comment please do. If you would like to participate in the challenge with us please support the authors by purchasing their books. I found my copies at Barnes and Noble and they are also available on Amazon.com.  Also, if you want to participate in the challenge with us post a link to your blog in the comments or let us know how it is going...we can inspire one another.  You can also participate with the authors' online group.

This week's prompt... "If this had not happened, we would never had met..."
