Awards!

I have received the Stylish Blogger Award from three different blogs! Can you imagine? All my hard work has paid off. And sadly, I'm one of the most unstylish people I know.

I received it from: (click the names to be taken to their site)

This brownie-loving Star Trek fan writes young adult and adult paranormal fiction. She has also written short stories that are now in anthologies. She taught herself how to juggle, but cannot juggle and hula hoop at the same time, even though she a champion hula hooper. Check out her blog HERE.

Marie Rearden lives in Ohio with some cool cats. She is writing her first novel and when she sells her first, she wants to buy her mom a pair of diamond earrings. How sweet is that! You can check out her blog HERE.

Crystal is a writers and home-school mum. She writes novels of the YA/MG genres. When she was thirteen, she quit piano lessons because she was sick of playing other people's music and wrote her first composition. That's talent! Check out her blog HERE.

Now, I must share seven things about myself. These are some things that I love (besides writing and my family):

1. the smell of a freshly opened can of coffee
2. rhubarb
3. thunderstorms and rain
4. learning new things
5. when you're just about to fall asleep and you feel like your body is falling
6. The Daily Show
7. and blogging.

(I took these from another awards post mostly because I'm lazy.)


Now, in light of what recently happened in Japan, I want to give the award to these people:
(1) Claire Dawn at Points of Clair-ifiction. She lives in Japan and I haven't heard from her yet. I hope she's all right. Check out her blog.
(2) Patrick Tillett - his wife is Japanese and I'm sure she has friends and family there. I hope everyone she knows is all right.
(3) Margot Kinberg is not from Japan, but she's been working hard to support those who suffered from the Christchurch earthquake. Please visit her blog and support those in need. Even a small donation will help.
