Win big with Claire Lynch
We posted back in April about Claire Lynch’s fan contest to win an iPod Shuffle pre-loaded with Claire’s six Rounder releases.
The premise of the contest was simple, but far from easy – tell your life story in only six words.
A winner has been chosen, Corrina Logston from Red Bud, IL, who impressed Claire with the way her entry could either be taken seriously, or tongue-in-cheek.
Action, adventure, romance – my Hollywood life.
Congratulations to Corrina, who is herself a talented young bluegrass musician.
Claire said that there were so many entries that caught her fancy that she found that she had to choose six honorable mentions as well.
Maintain yard. Never been to prison.

Congrats to all the winners, and kudos to Claire for coming up with such creative promotions!
