Says Colleen
Goldrick of New Jersey of her photo: "Seeing as this is entitled
World Contest I chose a picture of myself on a gorgeous cruise boat
all dressed up seeing the World for the first time. I was so excited
to be on a cruise at 40, finally and had a wonderful time seeing the
Caribbean. The boat was luxurious and the food, well let's just say
that dress was tight by the end of the trip, so were all my clothes.
I found my vacation was clearly dominated by the times the different
meals were served. From the fancy dress up dinner's to the casual
pool side drinks and deserts with music, it was a memory I'll hold
with me forever. Hopefully I'll get to go again before I turn 50."

Says Phyllis Skoglund of Florida:
"I caught a dangerous fish like this Scorpion Fish. I'm told
that they're a good tasting meal but you just have to know how to
clean them."

Says Corey Robertson of Mississippi: "I
fell in love with your books and decided to send my husband one.
It can get pretty lonely in Afghanistan where he is right now with
the Army. He is due to return on June 24th, three days before our
first child is due to be born! He loved your book and asked me if
I could find anymore which you had written. I I have always loved
him, since I met him in high school, but knowing that romance books
touched his heart, touched mine more than I can say and I fell in
love with him even more than I already am! I did ask him about his
fellow troops seeing him reading a romance novel and he told me
that he takes it out on patrol with him so if for any reason it
might bring tears to his eyes, he can blame them on the frequent
sand storms which fill your eyes with grit and make them tear up."

Donna Holmberg of Delaware says: "This is a picture of me that
ran in the Middletown Transcript last week in an article dedicated
to my love of writing and my two recent essay contest wins. My first
win was a 20-day trip around the world that I won from American Licorice
Company and Red Vines Licorice. I got married in February and my husband
and I will be using as our delayed honeymoon this summer. The second
win was a $100 gift certificate from French's Mustard that I have
already used to buy several of your books and other books that the
seniors were begging for (at the nursing home where I volunteer my
time and love)." |

Says Eve Fralick of New Hampshire of this
photo: "My 13-year old daughter, Jamie, and I recently flew by
helicopter to the northern Atlantic to watch harp seals calve on the
frozen ocean. It was an absolutely amazing experience. My daughter
wants to be a biologist, and I thought this would be a great way in
which to support and encourage her dreams and goals. The photo below
shows Jamie in her survival suit petting a newborn baby seal of about
4-5 days old." |

Says Minna Puustinen
of Savonlinna, Finland: "This picture was taken in NDSU in International
Expo by Swedish exchange student Camilla. We were sharing a table
there. On the table she had stuff from Sweden and I of course had
stuff from Finland. " |

Reader Darlene lives in southern Louisiana.
She says: "My greatest hobby is gardening and I have the hands
to prove it. Only time they are decent is during the winter months.
At that time, I am an avid reader. Love books, hardly ever watch television.
In the picture, we are celebrating the marriage of our daughter (36
years old). We did not think marriage or grandchildren would be in
her future. Now we have a great son-in-law and a new grandson. " |
