If someone asked you to talk about one of the most important moments in your life, good or bad, and to tell them about it — what story would you share?

Well, we're asking.

Think of a time that was wonderful or difficult, that happened over time or in an instant, on your own or with family.

If it stayed with you, maybe even changed you or your course in life, chances are it's a story worth telling.

Email your story of up to 400 words and a daytime phone number to (news@wiscassetnewspaper.com or news@boothbayregister.com).

Feel free to attach a photo of you, or one that relates to the story. We'll read them all and select ones to publish in a "Your Story" column.

This is no writing contest: We're just looking for readers' stories that touch the heart because they really happened, and they happened to you.
