Because I’ve been given a Splash! award by Susan, I’d like to return the favor and give some Splash! awards to other book blogs I’ve been reading regularly.
The Rules:
1) Put the logo on your blog/post.
2) Nominate up to 9 blogs which allure, amuse, bewitch, impress or inspire you.
3) Be sure to link to your nominees within your post.
4) Let them know that they have been splashed by commenting on their blog.
5) Remember to link to the person from whom your received your Splash award.
(Squee. I just realized this is my first meme!)
Here are my splash awards
1) Back to Susan, whom I admire for turning book blogging into a social activity. You always have something new, interesting to read every time I check your blog, and it’s always from the heart too :)
2) Peter, because I was hooked from my first visit to your blog! I look forward to reading your entries, and I feel gratified that there are more book lovers in this country.
5) Marie, another Flipper friend! I enjoy your company because we have very different literary taste, and I admire your take-no-prisoners attitude towards books :)
6) Patti, who is one of my inspirations for blogging. When I saw your WordPress blog last year, I knew I wanted a blog of my own!
7) IHop, another one of my inspirations. You have a blog for everything, and someday I’d like to do that too! And I love how I can imagine you as I read your posts, like we’re talking face to face :D
8) Keyla, whose blog I discovered today. I’ve been seeing you in Shelfari, and you’ve added me too, and your love for books is infectious :)
9) and one last — Color Online, because the advocacy is admirable, and the blog goes out of its way to reach out to readers and make empowerment fun! :)
(I wish I could add more!)
Wow! Thank you so much for the kind words. You really know how to make someone feel good and who doesn’t want, need to hear that others think highly of the work they do and the efforts they make? I admit I do. Your words are the encouragment that keep me going. Thank you.
Oh my gosh! Thanks so much for this award! My ears are flapping and I have a grin stretching from ear to ear.
This is a great encouragement for me to make my blog better. Thanks again, sumthinblue! You made my week! :)
Thanks so much, Blooey! Oh my, this means that I’ve much more blogging to do! Hehehehe.
Thanks for the Splash Award, Blooey. So refreshing. Perfect for summer. :D
Have experienced a temporary lull in my blogging. This is the boost I needed.
Squee for splashes everyone! :)
Woohoo! My first award! Thanks so much, Bloo.:) And may I say that your blog is a big inspiration to me, too.
Let’s push book blogging further so we can promote reading AND writing in the country!:)
Thank you a gazillion times, Blooey! Take-no-prisoner attitude huh? That’s very kind of you to put it that way, LOL! You make me want to be a better blogger. :)
Marie hahaha, do you prefer “guerilla tactics?”
