MADONNA CHANGED MY LIFE ESSAY CONTEST

Has Madonna -- her music, her life, her personality -- changed or effected your life in a profound or inspirational way? Tell us about it!

We are currently putting together an exciting anthology of approximately 101 inspirational stories (sort of like "Chicken Soup for The Soul" series) detailing, in 500 words or less, how Madonna has in some way positively impacted the lives of the millions of men and women who've grown up living in her "material world." We are looking for talented and creative contributions to this exciting project, and we need your help!

Some examples....

* Perhaps you lost your virginity while a song of hers was playing on the radio?
* Perhaps you went through a tough breakup when she was going through one?
* Perhaps you found inspiration or strength through her example?
* Perhaps you found the courage to "reinvent" you life, just like Madge did...
