VOTE BADGE

 

This month we have 4 amazing “My Gutsy Story” submissions.

Please vote for your favorite story. You have until February 13th  to vote, and the winner will be announced on February 14th. Yes Valentine’s Day.

SCROLL DOWN ON SIDEBAR TO VOTE. Only ONE vote each.

Our first story of the month is from Mary Gottschalk

Mary Gottschalk

Mary wrote a memoir, Sailing Down the Moonbeam  and is a true example of a “gutsy” woman who stepped out of the corporate world into a world where nature became her boss. This gave her clarity and made her realize what’s important in life.

Christine Lewry

Christine Lewry

 Christine shared such an honest account of what it’s like to go through the various stages of cancer from detecting a lump, waiting for biopsy results, then surgery and chemotherapy.  What I loved was her positive message, that made me realize that there are always lessons to be learned even the ones we fear the most.

Michael Jay

Michael Jay AuthorHeadshotCropped

You brought tears to our eyes with your coming-of-age memoir. As you said, you had a “gutsy” mother.

Linda Joy Myers

Linda Joy Myers

 Linda, you transported us into your life as a child, a young woman and finally a mother yourself yearning all your life for your own mother’s love, approval and recognition. You forgave your mother at the end of her life, which makes your story so compelling.

 ***
