Loren has kickstarted her career as a journalist. She even met with a local pro who mentored her. Check out the stories on her blog!
Dustin, on occasion, has dared us to follow him down roads of the mind. This time he dared us to follow him on a skateboard.

Originally, Shane's masterpiece centered on the study of happiness. He read books on philosophy, success, and flow theory. Eventually this made him unhappy.
