Love Ya Award
Of all the awards I’ve been blessed with, this has to be my favorite. I can’t think of too many people who don’t like being told they are loved.
My critique partner and AuthorCulture co-host, Katie Weiland, surprised me with this one, and I have to admit it made me cry. It’s amazing how close you can get to folks you’ve only met on-line.
Thanks, Katie, for the award and for your friendship!
The “Love Ya” Award states:
These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers.
I know folks who fit this description!
Lynnette Bonner, co-host of AuthorCulture, and author of Writers Journey.
Lynn Mosher, author of the devotional site Heading Home.
Terry Walker, author of Wayfarer Walk and Romantic Walk.
Katharine Richardson, author of Wise Dogs in the Library.
Winter Peck, author of Rodeo with a Twist of Suspense.
Shaddy, author of Paper Cut Screams.
These folks are special to me for various reasons and it’s my pleasure to grant this sweet award to them!
By the way, I just wanted to make a plug for Katie: Her first book A Man Called Outlaw is now available on Amazon.com! I’m so excited for her!
If you like a good western drama, this is the book for you. Anyone who’s read this blog for any length of time knows how I feel about Katie’s writing: it’s amazing. She draws you into the story immediately and won’t let you go until you’ve read the last word. Don’t miss out on this novel!
One man stood up unafraid. One man fell alone. One man’s courage became a legend.
Several years into it, and this blog still refuses to be categorized. It's eclectic and includes everything from writing posts to snippets from my ordinary life.

Wow. Linda, the day I made a comment on Ride over at CW must have been ordained of God. I’ve really enjoyed our friendship! You are one special lady. And thanks for the award, it means a lot. Really.
You know what I chuckle about? When we all get to heaven and perhaps are meeting each other for the first time there will be a bunch of people from before computers going, “Wait? You’re friends? But you’ve never met?” lol Probably won’t be that way at all, but the thought made me chuckle. AND I hope I get to meet you before heaven! 🙂
And congrats to Katie! So nifty about her book!
