and the nominee is . . . YOU!

I just stumbled onto something so cool at It Goes On I have to share it right this minute:

It seems there is no limit to the number of blogs I can tap for this, so here are my nominations for the “I’m NOT Freshly Pressed Award:”

1. Part Time Monster,
2. Things Matter, and
3. Everyone who likes or comments on  Sourcerer’s Awards Page for the entire life of this blog.

To accept the award, you must follow the instructions of award creator Don Charisma exactly. The instructions are not to be altered, and nominees should be sent to the original instructions for details.

Because the instructions require you to publish your nominations, inform nominees, and then complete another step before adding a link back to the blog that nominated you, I’m assuming Don means a permanent link, so I will add  It Goes On to my blogroll tonight.

I will also update my Awards and About pages to give everyone who reads them a chance to get in on the fun.

If you don’t accept awards, but you have friends or followers who might enjoy this, please pass it along in whatever way seems best.

Now, in one paragraph, here is why I want to be freshly pressed: It means a huge number of people will read my blog, and some will come back a second time. Plus I get the groovy badge that tells first time visitors I must be a fabulous blogger. That’s all. Simple as that. I want a big audience and a stamp that suggests the writers who blog here are worth reading. I don’t really go in for status and such.

ed. – You do not have to do the nomination like this. You can just do them the normal way, I am sure that’s what most people do. I just thought it would be cool to offer everyone who reads this a chance to have an award-winning blog 😉
