JM, at the fiction scribe, gave me the When you Smile Award.
You guys know that I love awards. They make me smile, but they do more than that. I take probably too much validation from them, which is sort of sick in the head, but what do you expect from a girl like me who writes about rock stars, anyway? I mean, that fact alone speaks volumes about insecurity and delusions of grandeur.
Anyway, I love these things, and part of loving getting them is the love of passing them along.
My friend Bunnygirl‘s created a world that’s real and vibrant. If you haven’t checked out her fiction, you should. AND she’s done what I don’t have the guts to do yet — published a volume through Lulu.com. Called My New-Found Land, it’s got to be good, if her outtakes are any indication. (My own copy hasn’t arrived yet. I’ll holler when it does)
So… with no small flourish and a great bit of envy for Bunny’s writing ability, I present this award to her.
And if you see this before Halloween and you have some fiction to share, read the comment trail. Bunnygirl’s throwing a last-minute Halloween story carnival. Why not join in??
