| Congratulations to Karen Cotton, who won our Week 3 "Survival Kit." Cotton is a computer and tech support consultant in San Diego, and also does tech transfer at a biological research institute. A graduate of the University of North Carolina in Greensboro, Cotton says the best word to describe her is "curious." In fact, that's what led her to MyRomanceStory.com: "I was curious about what contests besides sweepstakes were available online, and came across yours purely by accident. Answering questions about a story plot looked interesting at least," she said. One of Cotton's favorite thing to do on a night in is to drink some champagne and do "spa stuff" like try out new lotions, face masks or nail colors. Our "Survival Kit" will fit in quite nicely since it includes beauty products from Joyful Girl Natural Products and a gift card from Fragrancenet.com! |
