Support Your Favorite Blog!

Book Blogger Appreciation WeekBy now, I’m sure you’ve heard about Book Blogger’s Appreciation Week being held in September by My Friend Amy.  No?  What’s great is that you don’t have to have a blog to participate in nominating your favorite bloggers for an award.  I LOVE this idea and have to admit that I’m jealous that I didn’t think of it myself.  What a great community builder and a great way to acknowledge great blogs while discovering some great new ones.  So my dear readers, what are you waiting for?    Nominate up to two blogs per category by emailing BbawawardsATgmailDOTcom with your selections.

Write In–think we missed something? Write in your category and nomination and if there are enough other write-ins of the same category it will be added!

Two categories that I think are missing is Best Book Reviews, Most Charitable/Most Giving, Best Author Interviews, Most Helpful and the Best Commentator.  I know that I’ll be sitting down and doing my nominations.  I hope you’ll perhaps consider the Maw Books Blog for one or two among the many AWESOME blogs out there.  Hurry, nominations end on the 31st.

Hey you! Yes. You! I've noticed that you've stopped by to visit a few times! But I don't know who you are. Why don't you take a moment and introduce yourself. Don't be scared. I try not to bite. I know you're a lurker but I'd love to hear your thoughts about what's been bringing you here. And if you haven't done so already, don't forget to never miss a post by subscribing to my feed or receiving updates by email. Thanks for visiting!

  2. Hey Natasha,
    Thanks for helping to spread the word! Some of those (more than 2?!?) categories will be added, I just need to update things and I’ll extend the deadline for those. I also forgot sci-fi/spec fic/horror/fantasy (which will all be one) In my defense, I did run this by at least 10 other bloggers before posting. ;)

For some reason, Askimet Spam is giving me a lot of false positives. Even to those who have left me many comments before. So if you leave a comment, hit submit, and it seems to go the way of the wind, don't resubmit it. I'll catch it and publish it. Also, if you leave 2 or more links in your comment, it automatically goes into moderation. I'll catch that too.

I love and invite your comments. I thrive on them. But by posting a comment, you agree to not post off topic, defamatory, obscene, abusive, or use language that is not family friendly. I have the right to remove such comments and prevent you from leaving comments in the future. That said, comment away!
