Scribblers

I was given this award a few months ago by Annie, a writer I truly admire (and a dear friend).
She gave me the award saying this; Michael at Smoke & Mirrors because his landscape is beautiful and touching, albeit often sad, and so very real that his words can touch as no others can.”
I have to apologize for being so damn late.
Thank you, WC.

Here are the rules for the winners:

  • Each Superior Scribbler must in turn pass The Award on to 5 most-deserving Bloggy Friends.
  • Each Superior Scribbler must link to the author & the name of the blog from whom he/she has received The Award.
  • Each Superior Scribbler must display The Award on his/her blog, and link to This Post, which explains The Award.
  • 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 Prestigious Honor!
  • Each Superior Scribbler must post these rules on his/her blog.

I’m bestowing this honor on five bloggers that I feel are deserving in so very many ways.
They are all wonderful and have added so much colour and creativity to our cyberspatial community.

Spasmically Perfect

Spaz and I go way back to the early days.
A comment of hers left me speechless and I haven’t stopped visiting her since.
If you haven’t spent some time at this very special blog you are missing out on some wonderful stories, prose and the thoughts of one incredibly creative woman.

Enreal

Not sure how we linked up initially but I’m so very glad that we did.
A visit to this place is simply magical.
Her words are not unlike a wonderful session of yoga for the restless mind.
Trust me.

Grimm

What can I say about a guy like me that is totally in love with his wife and kids?
Grimm is a lighter and much funnier version of yours truly.
This is a guy that really deserves more recognition that what he gets.
I found Grimm on BlogExplosion a little while back and have been thoroughly entertained since.
I am proud and truly honoured to call him a friend.

Poetikat

A blog that makes you laugh, cry and give serious thought to the many serious questions regarding our lives.
Kat is a writer/poet that truly inspires me to be just a bit more, creatively speaking.
Though she has an avid following I had to give her this award.
Please stop by and say hi to Kat.

Smith

Although he’s the ultimate blogslacker, he writes very well and has a joyfully sardonic sense of humor.
His view on the world is uniquely his own and I love the fact that he can verbally smackdown
the most intellectual of assholes with the most succinct use of the English language known to man.
Did I say he writes well?
Please visit Smith.
Someone has to at least tell him he won an award . . .  (yeah, i’m a wisearse)

Congrats to all!

  2. Ok, so, like, what’s going on here? Someone said I won some kind of award thingie, or something? Wow. Cool. Is this the part where I thank my mother, and God, and my agent, and my wife–oh, wait, I don’t have a wife anymore. Ok, skip the wife part.

    So the Ultimate Blogslacker won an award. Who woulda thunk it? Thanks, buddy. It means a lot coming from you, of all people. Of course, don’t think I don’t know the next move in your little gambit. I can almost see your next post….

    The real irony here is that forever more you and I will be side by side on Mr. Linky. (God, that sounds so dirty.)

    Could be worse. Could be Mr. Bunny . . .
    Congrats, Smith (blogslacker!) :evil:

    I heard about Smith getting an award on his blog, so I ran here to check which one (wasn’t aware that there was a ‘blogslacker’-award), and the first thing I see is my name, which renders me totally confused. I scroll back up and see the award category and……wait, Hubby has a question:

    Oh and by the way it is Bryan. What is the cash award for this honour?

    Your timing is scary Mr. Murphy, plain and simple scary.
    Thank you.
    (And I could have been a runner up for blockslacker too ;-) ).

    Awww, Suz
    I’ve loved your writing for so long and felt this was so damn appropriate.
    Actually, you were the very first person that came to mind. (truth)
    As far as a cash award goes, it’s only in beers at Jacob Wirth’s the next time you guys visit Boston. Hope that’s okay . . . ;)
    Congrats, kiddo. An award that’s much deserved.

    Well, thank you so much, M. I am blown away not only by your endowing me with this, but more so by what you have to say about me and my blog. I see I’ll soon be adding a few more to my roster of blogs that I follow. Give me a couple of days to check everyone out and to post this.

    By the way, I never give you these awards because I thought you wouldn’t post them. I have a whole backlog that you just might be receiving (do you have an attic)?

    Thanks again, dear friend!

    Kat

    I just felt you deserved this award.
    Your words need to be read by more people.
    If this helps in any way, I’m happy.
    You are one incredibly creative woman. End of story . . . or the beginning.
    Congrats, Kat

    ps. i have a really small attic. sorry. ;)

    Michael. You are too kind! Your work has always been an inspiration to so many… I am so happy to have met you and to have been listed amoung such beautiful artists! Thank you again.

    It is much deserved.
    You are welcome.

    In true ~m fashion, I am late getting to this award. It seems for some of the winners (me included) this could double as a blogslacker award.

    Just goes to show what I’ve said all along…”Quality takes time.”

    Thanks man – It means a lot coming from such a scribe as yourself.


    You are so damn welcome, my friend.
    I love your blog.
    Period.
