Dear Sillies,
We interrupt our Halloween "treats" to bring a burst of personal excitement.
I know, it doesn't look official. The certificate and stickers are en route, though.
I WON! I WON! I WON! 2nd place and Honorable Mention for InSanity in BookFest Fall '23 for Nonfiction, Mental Health! WOOT! Both my memoirs (this and Woman on the Verge of Paradise) are award winning babes.
One never knows where life will take you. I began this journey on blogspot 14 years ago. Here I met my good friend and editor, Bryan Pedas* of the former A Beer for the Shower blog, and current blogger, HRH, who spent countless hours helping me fine-tune my writing. Wait, did I say HRH? No, no, no, that feisty dead cat didn't help at all. It's her servant woman, DebraSheWhoSeeks. Sorry for the mix-up, Deb. Do forgive me.
*Stay tuned for the extraordinary entertainment Bryan's been busily crafting.
CONGRATULATIONS. Woo hoo and happy dances for and with you.
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you, EC! I appreciate your joining my happy dances.
DeleteCongratulations! I should read Insanity, but I feel like that's what I'm living.
ReplyDeleteThat's my point, Jeff. We all live it. This babe's written at my expense, though; it's a memoir.
DeleteThank you.
How exciting! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteYes, yay! Thank you, dear Mitchell.
DeleteYou have earned this and I am so happy for you!! A big hug and a cheers to you.
ReplyDeleteYou're a great bloggy friend, Birgit. Thank you! Big hug back to you.
DeleteThat is awesome, Robyn! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Alex! I always appreciate your supportive friendship.
DeleteCongrats, Robyn! The award is so richly deserved! And it's okay to mix me up with HRH. (Don't tell anyone, but she is secretly my alter ego.)
ReplyDeleteOh no, Debra. That's quite scary. But I'm glad you don't mind the mix up. It'll be our secret.
DeleteThanks so much again and again.
Congrats - that's wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Diane!
DeleteNow I'm going to have to mail my copy to you so you can autograph it!
ReplyDeleteOkay, or you can judge forge my sig. That's easier.
DeleteThank you for making the purchase, reading it, and leaving the great review.
Fantastic! 👏👏👏 Congrats! 🎉
ReplyDeleteI appreciate it, Debbie. Woohoo.
DeleteHappy Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteThank you again, congratulations, happy. Love ya.

ReplyDeleteThank you, dear friend.
DeleteWay to go Robyn!! Congrats, you have every right to be excited, to dance in the streets (but do look out for cars).

How sweet of you to think about my safety. I'll dance around and perhaps atop the cars. Much appreciated, Sandy.
