### Winners need to send an email to: thesecretwriter@protonmail.com and include their mailing address.

We had a five-way tie with 5 people getting 3 votes each. As I mentioned, I will be honoring this five-way tie.

As I outlined in my [Free Book Giveaway](https://steemit.com/steemit/@stellabelle/i-m-giving-away-5-free-copies-of-my-book-un-crap-your-life-most-popular-comments-win-steemit-exclusive) post, the people who received the most upvotes for their comments on my post won a free paperback copy of my book, [Un-Crap Your Life: Navigating Life's Crappiest Situations](https://www.amazon.com/Crap-Your-Life-Navigating-Situations-ebook/dp/B017PBLZPA). I will be sending these out to the winners, free of charge, and free shipping, too. I guess I'll soon be finding out how much it will cost to ship to South Africa, as one of the winners is from there.

In case you missed the original post, here are some highlights from the winning comments (in no particular order):

### @davidbrogan wrote: _"Uncanny! You are obviously the identical twin sister I was separated at birth from. Either that, or you have stolen my personal diaries."_

### @rubenalexander's very simple and straightforward comment won him a book: _"Uncrapping my life. Doesn't require dropping nukes. I just need a book"_

### @warrensteem won with his cautionary comment: _"Free Shipping" Until you look at south african shipping costs xD"_ (I'll be finding out soon how much this is!)

### @allasyummyfood had an impassioned and desperate plea: _"Sometimes it feels like I am always in crappy situations, so it would be great to read your manual and relate to some of them. I want it BAAAAADDD!!"_

### @teamsteem had a future-oriented, sharing type of comment: _"I really enjoyed reading your book. I would love to have the physical version of it to share with some of my friends."_

### @richarjuckes had just purchased the Un-Crap Your Life ebook, and his photo of it got him 3 upvotes.

### @florentina received the most upvotes with her lengthy comment of which this is a highlight: _"I go from home to work to home day in day out. I spend most of my free time reading books or working out to yoga videos and practicing meditation. I'm also on the computer, possibly too often, when I should be going out, making friends, enjoying life. I read James Ultucher and Ryan Holiday for inspiration on how to "uncrap my life" but perhaps the words of a fellow woman warrior would go further."_

### @poteshnik83 wrote a heart-felt comment: _"Writing Your book is great idea. I think many people can find there many-many useful things. I really sure, cause i know your sincere big heart and your writer's talent, this book ought to be amazing.😆 I would like to get it. Because for me its a part of your inner world."_

### @wisehammer's honest response was quite unique: _"I would really want to be able to own a book like yours, expecially the fact I never had a real english book in all my life(if you exclude the minibooks of 2 pages for kids to learn from it). I really want a full real life immersion in an english book that may even help me making my life a little better, I surely can't expect to win a copy, but at least I'm trying ;)"_

I will say that my honorable mentions as far as comments go to @matthewtiii with his undeniably revealing comment: _"I think I need a book like "Un-Crap Your Life" because I keep stepping in it wherever I turn. My life has literally been a stroll through an overflowed septic system. Don't get me wrong, I love to try, I am just exceptionally good at failing. If there were an award for falling down, I would be the most decorated person alive. I would love to read this and maybe get some perspective. Thanks."_

And also to @cryptomancer with this: _"I would like a free copy of your book because of this phrase on the back: "she escapes 9 to 5". Being trapped in the rat race is one of he most aggravating aspects of my life. I'm actively seeking a way out of this black pit, and I find reading stories of how others did it to be highly inspirational fuel to keep me going."_

Thanks to everyone who participated and provided their unique comments. Thanks! And the funniest comment goes to @lordvader: _"I have found myself in several very crappy situations. My best friend cutting off my legs and leaving me to die in lava comes to mind. I will look into your book. I think it could help."_
