Congratulations on your essay and the prize, Jen! I thought you weren’t going to get paid! The part about the Madonna poser was perfect. I didn’t realize my parents lost my birth certificate until my second job because the first one never asked. I don’t know how I made it that far without it.

Jen, thanks for a good essay - I think it might be better had you listed ways you use this technique of acceptance and striving in your own work.
