My Gutsy Story 1st place

This April we had FOUR OUTSTANDING  “My Gutsy Story®” authors. Their stories will be included in our 2nd “My Gutsy Story®” Anthology, published in the Fall of 2014.  Thank you to all four authors. Your stories are all WINNERS.

Our first place goes to Ginger Simpson won 1st Place for her “My Gutsy Story®” about whether she caused her husband to turn to drink. The phrase that struck me in Ginger’s inspiring story is:

“Wanting someone to change isn’t enough. They have to WANT the change.”

2nd Place goes to Kathy Gamble, about finding her way as an expat living in different countries around the world.

    I’m honored to have my story selected as the winner. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share my “gutsy” moment with others who might find themselves in a similar situation. I hope my words might inspire others to make a difficult change

    Sonia, thanks for the opportunity to share my story.

    Ginger, congratulations on having your story chosen as the winner — if congratulations is the right word, considering the experience you lived through to reach the point of having that story to write. Alana
