More on BBAW

A few days ago I mentioned that I registered for Book Bloggers Appreciation Week. Well, My Friend Amy, who is hosting this todo, has nominations open for Book Blogger Awards.

I'm going to give you the low down on all of this and tell you what you can do to nominate book bloggers, but please don't see this as a campaign for votes. My feelings on awards (*cough* the Oscars *cough*) is that you have either earned them or you haven't. There shouldn't be any "campaigning". So, if you think I'm worthy of such an award and you nominate me, I'm terribly honored...many thanks. If you think there is a better mystery/suspense book blogger out there, by all means nominate that person. Would you drop me a line and let me know what's great about that person's blog??? ;)

O.k., the award categories are:

Best General Book Blog
Best Kidlit Blog
Best Christian/Inspirational Fiction Blog
Best Literary Fiction Blog
Best Book Club Blog
