Susan Speaks: Smiling
JM, at the fiction scribe, gave me the When you Smile Award.
You guys know that I love awards. They make me smile, but they do more than that. I take probably too much validation from them, which is sort of sick in the head, but what do you expect from a girl like me who writes about rock stars, anyway? I mean, that fact alone speaks volumes about insecurity and delusions of grandeur.
Anyway, I love these things, and part of loving getting them is the love of passing them along.
My friend Bunnygirl's created a world that's real and vibrant. If you haven't checked out her fiction, you should. AND she's done what I don't have the guts to do yet -- published a volume through Lulu.com. Called My New-Found Land, it's got to be good, if her outtakes are any indication. (My own copy hasn't arrived yet. I'll holler when it does)
So... with no small flourish and a great bit of envy for Bunny's writing ability, I present this award to her.
And if you see this before Halloween and you have some fiction to share, read the comment trail. Bunnygirl's throwing a last-minute Halloween story carnival. Why not join in??

Awww... thank you! :-)
And if I may be so bold as to co-opt your comments for a sec, I'm hosting a last-minute Halloween fiction carnival on my blog tomorrow. Anyone who has an appropriately-themed story on their blog can send me the link at uhamp (at) yahoo (dot) com and I'll add it to the list!

Yay Susan, and Yay Bunnygirl! Both awards are well-deserved -- you're two wonderfully talented gals. :)
