Carla King- 1st Place

1st place: Congratulations to Carla King, winner of the March 2012, “My Gutsy Story” contest. Carla, you wrote a unique and inspiring travel story, with a unexpected twist at the end. Your wonderful fans all came to support you. Well Done.

2nd Place Stacia Duvall

 Stacia Duvall, a talented photographer and writer, shared the process of finding out who you are, and falling in love with “you” before you can love someone else. Another inspiring story which we can all relate to.

3rd place Pat Yeager

 Pat Yeager, has an incredible story of courage; that of a young mother who took charge of raising her four small children, when times were tough.

Jennifer Hemmeyer, your “wake-up call” after your horrific accident, made many of us realize the importance of not delaying our passions and dreams, but to start pursuing them today.

You are all WINNERS, with such amazing writing and stories to share. Thank you for participating, and to all VOTERS for taking part.
