Women at work and their tips, challenges, advice, complaints, and experiences

Who wants some of Martha Stewart's money?  (Me too!)  If there's a "touch of Martha in you", you may be on the road to earning some of it, actually. 

Martha Stewart Living has announced that they will select 11 deserving women as winner of the new "Dreamers Into Doers" award.  Whether you've personally turned a hobby into a career or you have a friend or relative who has taken their well-known talents to new heights, this will be of interest.

The prize packages range from $10,000 for the grand prize winner to use as seed money to keep things growing to $1,000 each for "deserving finalists".  All finalists will receive a trip to New York City to attend the Dreamers Into Doers Awards Gala this October, along with outfits from  presenting sponsor Talbots and a shopping spree ($250 for finalists, $1,000 for the winner). 

And what do you have to do to receive such honors (and some of Martha's money)?  Submit a 250 word essay at your local Talbots store, online at MarthaStewart.com/dreamers, or via USPS mail by July 6th, 2007.  All the rules are available on the MSLO site too; go check it out and get writing!
