I’m SO excited and thrilled to be awarded The Blog of
the Year by my lovely and talented writing friend Rosemary
Gemmell at Reading and Writing Blog
The rules for this are:
1. Select the blog(s) you think deserve the ‘Blog of
the Year 2012′ Award.
2. Write a blog post and tell us about the blog(s) you
have chosen - and ‘present’ them with their award.
3. Please include a link back to this page ‘Blog of the Year 2012′ Award
- and include these ‘rules’ in your post (please don’t alter the rules or the
badges!)
4. Let the blog(s) you have chosen know that you have
given them this award and share the ‘rules’ with them.
6. As a winner of the award — please add a link back to
the blog that presented you with the award — and then proudly display the award
on your blog and sidebar … and start collecting stars… Unlike other awards
which you can only add to your blog once — this award is different!
When you begin you will receive the ’1 star’ award —
and every time you are given the award by another blog — you can add another
star! There are a total of 6 stars to collect.
Which means that you
can check out your favourite blogs – and even if they have already been given
the award by someone else – you can still bestow it on them again and help them
to reach the maximum 6 stars!
I'm
passing this on to these fabulous and innovative bloggers:
Carol
at Dizzy C’s Little Book
Blog as she is such a terrific
support to writers and for her fabulous Festive
Fun feature that she is currently running every day up to Christmas!
Sharon
at Jera’s Jamboree Book
Blog as she is also a fabulous support to writers and has
recently set up her own book promotion business called Fiction Addiction Book Tours which she is so qualified to do that I’m
sure it will be fantastic success.
Kim
Nash at Kim the Book Worm is an avid reader, book reviewer, and a
generous supporter to writers. As well as her amazing blog, this year Kim has
been a radio star with her weekly Book Club programme on Stafford FM talking
about her favourite books (and kindly mentioned my latest release!) Together
with her co-host, Lee, she has now set up a new Book Club/Podcast feature on Facebook.
What a woman!
Rea
at
Rea Book Reviews blog who says that she is a bookaholic and who I think is one of
the loveliest and most enthusiastic book bloggers out there. Rea has a
fantastic list of reviews on her blog and is a great support to all writers.
Loveahappyending.com – this innovative
magazine style blog (with which I am a featured author and associate editor, I
have to say!) is the brainchild of talented author Linn B Halton and is
supported by a team of authors, book reviewers, and publishers. It has
interesting and fun features posted up by Linn and her associate editors three
or four times a week and I love it!
And
finally, Rosemary Gemmell, who
gave me this award and to whom I’d like to pass it back - so that she gets
another well-deserved star award for her blog Reading and Writing - for her generosity and in appreciation of
her market expertise in advising writers on suitable markets for short stories
and articles. In fact, she has written a feature on this subject for the
magazine of the Romantic Novelist’s Association, Romance Matters, this very month.
Thank
you so very much for this award – which means so much to me.
Please
DO visit the other blogs awarded this accolade and spread the word!
I
have one more blog to post for this year - on Friday 21st December -
which will be a fun round up of the events that took place on this blog over the
past year. I’m looking forward to it already so please do pop back and join me.
Until Friday then, Happy Christmas everyone!
