Proud Recipient of a Versatile Blogger Award

A ginormous thank you goes out to maedez of “A Small Press Life” for nominating !2Novelsin12Months for a Versatile Blogger Award.

This comes as a huge shock because when it comes to working in my blog I thought it was pretty uniform. This just goes to show you that you never know how others perceive you and that there can be unexpected depth, uncontrollable deviations from your plan and little nuggets of life that will weave their way into a post.

A huge thank you to each and every one of you who take the time to stop by and check out my newest post. It’s been more sporadic than when I first started so thank you for hanging in there with me as I move further on into this adventure. I couldn’t have done half of what I’ve accomplished without your help and encouragement!

The rules of the award:

1. make a post and name 15 nominees
2. inform the nominees that they’ve been nominated
3. share 7 previously unknown facts about yourself
4. thank the blogger who nominated you

As the rules go for this award, here are some bloggers I’d like to nominate:

• yearofkindness (http://yearofkindness.wordpress.com/)
• Third Sunday Blog Carnival (http://thirdsundaybc.com/)
• Notes from the Bench (http://notesfromthebench.wordpress.com/)
• Listful Thinking (http://listfulthinking.wordpress.com/)
• The Dissemination of Thought (http://disseminatedthought.wordpress.com/)
• http://theaberrantpen.wordpress.com/ (http://theaberrantpen.wordpress.com/)
• Me 2.0 (http://mikaleebyerman.wordpress.com/)
• 12 Books in 12 Months (http://12books12months.com/)
• C.B. Wentworth (http://cbwentworth.wordpress.com/)
• Lantern Hollow Press (http://lanternhollowpress.com/)

Now onto 7 previously secret tidbits about me:

1. I had to repeat grade 1 because I couldn’t read or write English.
2. I got my license at 18 and never owned a car until I was 29 because to this day I still would rather take the bus.
3. 9 times out of 10 I look forward to the traveling part of a trip rather than the destination.
4. I taught myself how to tie my own shoelaces and ride my bicycle.
5. I fractured my elbow skiing recklessly to impress a ski instructor. I was 13.
6. Speaking of skiing, I learned to ski in the Swiss Alps.
7. At 12 and 13 I swam on the high school swim team and consistently ranked high in the 250m front crawl.

I’d like to thank maedez once again for the honour of being a recipient of the Versatile Blogger award. I’m humbled that my little contribution to WordPressland  has been noticed and appreciated in this way. Thank you!

If you haven’t checked out “A Small Press Life (http://onetrackmuse.com/) or any of the blog I’ve nominated, please do! They’re all super awesome.

Happy Tuesday!
