Bloggies
Without wanting to sound ungrateful to the kind people who nominated me, I am not happy about being shortlisted for Best British or Irish blog in this year's Bloggie Awards.
Yes, it's a nice compliment, a good ego-boost, a delicious saliva-lubricated rim-job etc., but really it doesn't sit well with me. This is partly because I won the award in 2006 and one Bloggie is more than enough for me, thank you. As well as this, however, is the fact that there are - many - other UK writers who deserve to have their blogs recognised instead.
So I'm very disappointed that quality bloggers like JonnyB, Diamond Geezer, Anna, Mike, Salvadore, LMG, PornyBoyCurtis, Petite Anglaise, Tom Reynolds, Sasha, Meg and Gordon didn't make it onto the shortlists, because their writing is superb, and if anyone deserves to win a blog award, it is them.
However, I do hope people will still vote in the Bloggies - just not for me (thank you). I'm casting my vote (and hope you will do the same) in the Best British or Irish blog for the wonderful Andre, whose A Beautiful Revolution is a perfect blend of wit, melancholy and introspective analysis, which, combined with his wonderful doodles, photographs, and real-life-observation, makes him the deserved winner in this category.
[In other news: I am very busy.]
