Medeia Sharif was kind enough to bestow a Trendy Blog Award to Thoughts and Ponderings. Hmmmm. Who would have thought that the internal ramblings of a nerd could ever be trendy? :) Alas, I accept the award with the same graciousness with which it was given. Now - the rule is that I post the award and then pass it on to 10 others; never being one to follow rules, I'm passing the award on to 5 others :). My vote for 5 trendy blogs:
Cruella Collett
Alexis Hallum
Creepy Query Girl
Jennifer Hillier
Dori the Giant
Thank you, Medeia, for thinking of me in the context of trendy {blush}!
Haha, congratulations on getting a "trendy" award!
ReplyDeleteNow, now, Abby. I know I'm not trendy, per se, but they don't give out "introspective, quirky and sometimes sullen" awards, so I took what I could get :).
ReplyDeleteHey, like I told you on your blog, I enjoy reading you.
Mohamed
Me? Trendy! Thanks, Mohamed. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Mohamed! This is the trendiest blog accessory yet! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteYes, congrats on this award and...thank you for passing it to me!:)
ReplyDeleteYes, you, Jennifer! And how can you possibly suggest that you might not be trendy considering that amazing interview you've got going today???
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Creepy Query Girl! I like the way your blog goes from the super-serious to fun and then back again....sort of like life itself.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly deserve it, Alexis. I loved the way you merged poetry and photography in your latest blog post. Now that's some creative cubism! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, wow - thank you so much! I think this is the first time in history I (or anything I've made) have ever been referred to as trendy. Very happy to have earned that particular experience, though! :)
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Cruella! But hey: after reading about your road-trip in one of your recent blog posts, I can't see how you couldn't be trendy? :)
ReplyDeleteHaha thanks. I don't think I'm trendy. Not yet though. ;) I sure am hoping on starting a few trends haha!
ReplyDelete:)
Dori the Giant/Wallflower,
ReplyDeleteI've read the postings on your blog; I've looked at the images and ideas. Great stuff; if you're not trendy, you ought to be!
Mohamed :)
Nerds are very trendy. I'm one, so I speak from experience. Now I need to check out those links.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteYou deserve it and you don't have to be so modest.
You been a source of inspiration to so many people including me. So lap it up.
Hi Mohamed...congrats on your Trendy Blog Award!
ReplyDeleteMedeia - "Nerds are very trendy." Hmmm? That's definately Mensa, through and through :)
ReplyDeleteRama - thank you! You know, as often as I feel I've lost my own inspiration, it's nice to know that maybe in some small and simple way, I've contributed to another writer's inspiration. Thanks again for the kind compliment.
Rachna - thanks :)
Congrats on your award! And take the positives of the compliement. A new idea that spreads happiness and and new perpectives...it's good!
ReplyDeleteHuge congrats for your award! :)
ReplyDeleteWhy, thank you, Dr. Kang! BTW, I loved your recent post about killing our darlings. So true!
ReplyDeleteMohamed
Thanks, Lynda. Hey, the lessons you learned while learning to become an actor are the basis for tomorrow's "Friday Friends." More to follow - stay tuned! :)
ReplyDeleteVery cool award. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog :)
You're welcome, Tabitha. Like I mentioned on your blog, you write well. You have a good mix of images and emotions, your writing holds the reader's attention. I also like the way you vary the length and descriptiveness of sentences. You do it in a way that creates a non-jarring, unobtrusive and natural narrative flow.
ReplyDeleteI like your work, both from literary and from emotive standpoints.
Enjoy the weekend!
