I am grateful to everyone who has supported We Said Go Travel. Three times a year since January 2013, I have run travel writing competitions. This year we transformed into the From the day I invented this idea, everyone has been encouraging! Amazing writers have participated as judges and contestants. My team has grown to support the thousands of writers who have been published on my site. I feel fortunate that you have all shown up.
For the 2016 Gratitude We Said Go Travel Writing Award:
The theme is where did you find the spark to follow your dreams?
The Fall Award will open on September 11, 2016 and close on Thanksgiving Day, November 24, 2016 at midnight PST.
I am grateful to Konark, India and the International Sand Art Festival for inspiring me to start this contest.
And if you are not sure what to write or if you are doing it right, remember the words from “Try Everything” from I messed up tonight
I lost another fight
I still mess up but I'll just start again
I keep falling down
I keep on hitting the ground
I always get up now to see what's next
Birds don't just fly
They fall down and get up
Nobody learns without getting it wrong
I won’t give up, no I won’t give in
Till I reach the end
And then I’ll start again
Though I’m on the lead
I wanna try everything
I wanna try even though I could fail
I won’t give up, no I won’t give in
Till I reach the end
And then I’ll start again
No I won't leave
I wanna try everything
I wanna try even though I could fail
