One Lovely Blog

I’m a little late with this one, but Literary Escapism received the One Lovely Blog award from The Sordid’s Domain of Random Inspiration.  I’ve been seeing this one floating around for awhile, but this is the first time I’ve received, so thank you Incident!  The rules are simple

Accept the award & post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link; then pass the award on to 15 other blogs that you’ve newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

So now I get to pass this award on to 15 other bloggers and these are ones I’ve just recently found: Book Chick City, Book Lush, The Bookpushers, Fantasy …

Since I just posted the latest Newsletter last night, I was going to take today off from the news, but while there isn’t a lot, there’s some good things that came out today, so what the hell.  It’s a little short, but I did include something that did brighten my day.

First up, I am feeling the love today.  Check out what Angela from Dark Faerie Tales gave to Literary Escapism…it’s the Kick Ass Blog Award!  Here’s the details for it:

1. To play you must be awarded this blog button by someone. Accept the badge, stick it on your blog- then post about it.  Make sure your badge links back to the person who gave it to you.
2. Name five blogs in your post that you think are *worthy* of this sweet kick-ass badge. Don’t forget to let them know you’ve …

Wendy from Wendy’s Minding Spot gave Literary Escapism the The Honest Scrap Award. Thank you for thinking of me Wendy!  Now I have to come up with 10 things about me and give this out to 10 different blogs. Why do I think this is going to be hard. :)

1. Not really anything new, but I am a HUGE book addict. I didn’t realize how bad it was until the hubby mentioned I spent $500 on books in the last 3 months. Something tells me I should be really glad he hasn’t gone back further on our receipts.
2. I get into weird moods when it comes to my books. There are times I want nothing but romance and if I read something else, that book will never win.  Other times I’ll want nothing but action and …

It must be the award season because I am feeling the love from both Rachel and Sam.

Rachel at Enchanted by Books gave me the snazzy Superior Scribbler Award.  This one is really fun since it has a few more details (and requirements) than most of them out there and they are:

1. Each Superior Scribbler must in turn pass The Award on to 5 most-deserving Bloggy Friends.
2. Each Superior Scribbler must link to the author & the name of the blog from whom he/she has received the award.
3. Each Superior Scribbler must display The Award on his/her blog, and link to this post, which explains the award.
4. Each Blogger who wins The Superior Scribbler Award must visit this post and add his/her name to the Mr. Linky List. That way, we’ll be able to keep up-to-date on everyone who receives this …

Check out the cover hottness Keri Arthur has for Bound to Shadows, the 8th Riley that comes out October 27, 2009.  Oh yeah, I’m lovin’ this one.
