Unique Blogger Award

The blogger Jaywalks (onwardigo.wordpress.com) graciously nominated me for the Unique Blogger Award.

Here is a link to his post (and you will see one of my favorite blogging buddies Brush of Dawn is also nominated): Very Mysterious Ice Cream

Here are the rules he posted on this particular blogging award nomination:

As per the rules of this award, I have to now ask all nominees three questions of my own. I will keep mine pretty similar to those above, and because I’m feeling a bit dull, I’ll keep it strictly business:

• Which one word do you think best describes your blog?
• Is there a post you’re particularly proud of and would like to reshare?
• Have you any grand goals for your blog/practice this year?

And, of course, the spirit of the award means nominees should also go ahead and nominate thirteen others, ask questions of their own etc. etc. As usual, there is no obligation to do that, or anything at all because I have said so. Go your own way! But indeed, my thanks once more to Dernhelm, congratulations to all nominees, and big thanks to all for your patience! See you at the after-party, which I was told is down there somewhere…

My Answers

1. Which one word do you think best describes your blog? RANDOM
2. Is there a post you’re particularly proud of and would like to reshare? CREATIVE INSPIRATION: STORIES MY FATHER TOLD ME (RE-POST)
3. Have you any grand goals for your blog/practice this year? MAKE A LOT OF STUFF AND WRITE ABOUT IT!

I follow many wonderful blogs and I randomly nominated names of blogs that came up in my WordPress Reader this evening. I think all the blogs I follow are unique and wonderful 🙂

My Rules

A year or so ago there were a lot of these award nominations floating around my regular group of blogging buddies, and I completely understand if you got burned out and do not want to participate in this award nomination.

But if you are one of the 13 above and want to participate, I have borrowed three random and unique questions from the website CONVERSATION STARTERS WORLD for you to answer in your blog post about the award:

1. What mythical creature would improve the world most if it existed?
2. What would be the coolest animal to scale up to the size of a horse?
3. What ridiculous and untrue, yet slightly plausible, theories can you come up with for the cause of common ailments like headaches or cavities?

Now that I have scared you all off from participating…

Feel free to nominate as many blogs as you like or just have fun answering the questions and do not bother nominating anyone.

Everyone, nominated or not is welcome to share their answers to these questions in the Comment section just for fun!
