The One Lovely Blog Award

I was very happy to discover this week that my Goodreads blog has been honoured with the One Lovely Blog Award.

I was granted the award by Sandra Yuen MacKay author of My Schizophrenic Life: The Road to Recovery from Mental Illness

Thank you, Sandra!

The way the award works is that you accept the award, post it on your blog with the name of the person who has granted the award and his or her blog link.

Pass it to 15 other blogs you've recently discovered, and contact the bloggers to let them know they've been chosen.

It's a great way to introduce people to new blogs which they may find interesting.

My chosen 15 (in no particular order) are as follows:
Quentin R Bufogle

Jen Knox

Stuart Ross McCallum

Darcia Helle

Simon Royle

Stacy Juba

Jess C Scott

TheSecret Writer

Beth Hoffman

Old Fools Blog

the Farthest Reaches

Julie Elizabeth Powell

Laura Schultz

Jerry Schwartz

Joyce Rothman
