Scribblers and Scribes
Posted on October 28, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging, Writers, awards, writing
Wow, imagine my surprise when somebody laid this award on me. Superior Scribbler?? See and mom thought my doodles would never get me anywhere. The lovely folks over at Eternity Road added me to their list of illustrious candidates for this lovely little award. And I thank them dearly for it. They had this to say:
Duyen suggested The Writer Chick, and a fine suggestion it is. WC is considerably less concerned with politics and so forth than us here at Eternity Road, which makes her site a refreshing change of pace for us. Her stylistic grace and close engagement with strong emotional themes are most noteworthy.
Stylistic grace, I really like the sound of that - not sure what they are referring to, perhaps that one of my many lists? LOL.
Okay all kidding aside - I get to choose five folks to pass this along to and so they are:
Christine at All the Elbows because quite honestly she never ceases to amaze me and her words have always had that effect on me. She is original and honest and has the most unique way of painting pictures with her words.
Michael at Smoke & Mirrors because his landscape is beautiful and touching, albeit often sad, and so very real that his words can touch as no others can.
Teeni, who is a communicator par excellance, regardless of topics whether it be avatar wars, cancer, painting, or life in general, this girl says it in the gentlest, realist way possible.
MJ, a new addition to my blogroll, whose witty and down to earth style endears and informs and who really needs to be read more because she has some very interesting things to say.
Last but not least, Dube - a woman not afraid to tackle the big topics as well as sci-fi conventions or whatever else hits her radar - the real deal in the scribe trade who puts me to shame but still for some reason likes to read here. She is something.
The rules are easy - link to the person who nominated you, select five candidates and link to the originating post here.
Thanks again to the folks at Eternity Road - a very nice and lovely surprise.

Wow - I like “stylistic grace” too - it sounds great. And if anyone asked me who I thought had it - it would be you, hands down, Annie! And, OhMiGods! This award is awesome - thank you so much. It is such an honor to receive it - my name does not belong in that list of such talented writers and bloggers, but I’m so flattered you thought to include me. Your kind words warm my heart! I will treasure this one. Thanks again.
Aw Teens, that’s sweet, thank you honey. Oh you so deserve this award Teens, although I know you have thousands already, it really screamed out your name to me. So there.

Awww, Annie.
Thank you.
This means so much coming from someone I truly admire not only as a friend but as another unique and creative soul.
You’ve helped me in so very many ways (some you know and some you don’t) and I ultimately feel blessed for having met you in the first place.
Thanks again for this award.
I will proudly post it sometime tomorrow.
You’re a peach.

Hey Michael,
Well of course you would be on the list - and my admiration for you I have made no secret of either. You’ve helped me in many ways as well and the feeling of blessedness is reciprocated. I was more than delighted to pass it on to you and I’m glad it gave you a smile. Smiles for friends are good, good things, eh?
