1-versatile-blogger-awardI’m very pleased that I was nominated by Ada of Gina’s Blog for a Versatile Blogger Award.

First of all, Ada is a truly interesting person (that’s why I read her blog).  She shares creative writing, art works, quotes that inspire her and others, and lots of other fun and inspirational content.

So, go check her out at Gina’s Blog and tell her I sent you!  You won’t regret it and might be a bit inspired after reading some of her posts!

The Rules (from The Versatile Blogger Award):

  • Thank the person who gave you this award. That’s common courtesy.
  •  Include a link to their blog. That’s also common courtesy — if you can figure out how to do it.
  •  Next, select 15 blogs/bloggers that you’ve recently discovered or follow regularly. ( I would add, pick blogs or bloggers that are excellent!)
  •  Nominate those 15 bloggers for the Versatile Blogger Award — you might include a link to this site.
  •  Finally, tell the person who nominated you 7 things about yourself.

My Nominees (slight rule break at 11…):

  6. Isabella Rose Photo Journal
  7. Middle Me

Each of these blogs is as unique as the folks that write them.  The one constant is that each blogger is devoted to running a great blog, which shows in the quality of what they provide, and the honesty of what they write.  You’ll want to check each of these blogs!

  3. Thank you very much for the nomination. I am Dutch too, but it is better to communicate in English.Only one question in Dutch: welk stripboek ben je aan het lezen?? I like comic books myself. Skye is wonderfull. I have been there years ago. Greetings Gretha Henriëtte.

    1. Het mag in beide talen voor mij. Dat is een Franse editie van Kuifje in Amerika.

      My favorite comic books are Kuifje, Asterix and Obelix, and Olivier B. Bommel (truly Dutch old school).

      Skye absolutely blew my mind when my wife and I visited it 3 years ago; it’s a photographer’s paradise, as I’d never run out of landscape material.

      Met vriendelijke groeten,

      Frank
