Best Blog Award

11 Comments

It’s awards day again. That means one fun fact about my childhood reading life and five new blogs to visit.
I used to love to play Nancy Drew. Sometimes I was Nancy, and sometimes I was Helen or George. My friend and I would clomp around in her mother’s high heels, carrying ancient thrift-store purses. We were never really sure about the mystery we were solving, but that didn’t stop us from gathering clues: receipts found in gutters, old cigarette butts, a rock kicked across the sidewalk, we’d collect them all.
Later, after our march around the block, we’d empty our purses and dig through our finds. Somehow, the mystery would all come together due to our fabulous sluething skills.
And here are the winners of the Best Blog award:
1.  Julie of  Literary Jules
2.  Susan Quinn of Ink Spells
3.  Lily Cate at The Literary Lily Cate
4.  Jenny at twentybyjenny
Winners, please select five other blogs to award, and congratulations!

    Thanks so much for the award! And I love your story. For my part, it was The Black Stallion and I would make horses out of chairs and tie ropes around to make reins and I’d ride along island beaches and in races against fabulous horses. It’s wonderful to know that we lived lives that allowed our creativity to blossom. Without that, we wouldn’t be called to fiction like we are. And long live fiction!
