Hi Austine - Many thanks for the nomination. As a long time blogger I'm rather ambivalent about these things - see this post on my blog Ackworth born from back in 2008.

To answer some of your ?? though 1 Both 2 A new day 3 Tea 4 Living 5 No answer 6 Love dogs but am now petless 7 Time 8 There's a hole in my bucket - it's now empty 9 Cool 10 No answer 11 Can't think of anything specific
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by. Have a good day.
DeleteThank you for the nomination! It's very kind from you!... It will take me some time to answer to everything (and first , to understand everything well! :o)
ReplyDeletebut I'll do my best !It's summer, we have plenty of time!

Glad to hear that you will be working on this project. I think it is worth the time. Have fun.
DeleteThanks for nominating me, I decline mainly because my readers do not like receiving request. Your CV sounds like you describe me. What do u write.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that, I write a lot of things just in general on my day to days and I currently am the co-author of a young adult science fiction novel.
DeleteThank you for this nomination, Austine. It's very flattering. However, I must decline to participate as I have way too much on my plate. Good luck with your encouraging program.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you on all your projects.
DeleteAustine, thank you so much for considering me. You probably overlooked the "please no award" gadget on the right sidebar. But instead, you could feature one of my paintings, because that if what I am all about:)
ReplyDeleteThere's always a painting right under my header, and if you click on that it will bring you to my art blog, and I give you permission to put one of those images on your blog (the right sidebar of my art blog leads to the different mediums I paint in).
I will put in turn, a pic with "I am featured by Austine" on the right sidebar of my Artistique blog.
Have a great week!
I did sorry about that
DeleteSUnday evening, I just spent about 2 hours to answer to your questions and will post everything on my blog tomorrow.It was funny to do!I don't know if my nominees will accept to play the game , but I enjoyed it! :o)
