I got nominated for the Vincent Ehindero Awards

Bonjour, fellow hoomans. First of all, I really appreciate my friend Queervisitor for nominating me for this award. I hadn’t known what it was about, until I saw her blog post in the morning. I commend her for her excellent style of writing both prose and poems. Notwithstanding that, I’ll link another blog post that another friend, Inksman, wrote that made a lot of sense.

To be frank, it’s not as much of getting the award as it is spreading the positive message this person is trying to communicate. Mr. Vincent Ehindero, I really like that you are trying to make your fellow bloggers feel worthy of the good that they are doing! It’s a wonderful thing to do, especially in these hard times. People need to feel positive, and that’s exactly how I felt when I saw my name as a nominee. It gave me a brief moment of pure joy. Someone knows what I’m doing, and they know that I aspire to be a good author. That’s great! So keep spreading this positivity amongst everyone. We all need it.

On another note, I’ll continue the ‘tradition’, and do the needful.

Rules for the award:

  1. Thank the blogger who nominated you and add their blog website.
  2. Answer the questions they have given you.
  3. Nominate 7 to 10 bloggers of your choice and inform them on one of their blog post.
  4. Ask them 7 questions.

Questions for nominees if they choose to participate:

  1. How were you inspired to start blogging?
  2. How do you spend time relaxing?
  3. What country do you live in?
  4. What are two of your favorite blogging topics?
  5. What is your favorite food?
  6. How often do you blog?
  7. Are you a great cook?

My answers:

  1. I’ve always loved writing, but I needed encouragement to start a blog. My amazing teacher, who is an inspiration to everyone he comes across, gave me that encouragement.
  2. I relax by listening to R&B (we really need to bring it back), and reading classics.
  3. I live in India.
  4. I like to blog about issues that need to be addressed, and feminism.
  5. I love Thai food, especially the curries.
  6. It really depends. Whenever inspiration hits me, I blog.
  7. I’m okay at cooking…. sorta

I’d like to nominate the following great writers:

  1. Soraya Roberts, from Longreads
  2. Take my eyes and see
  3. The whirly girl
  4. Diurnarius
  5. Naz Riahi, from Longreads
  6. Deenie Hartzog-Mislock, from Longreads
  7. Aditi (She isn’t a writer, but she has some excellent photography skills)

As for the nominees who would like to participate, I’d suggest answering the questions Queervisitor posted. I think they are quite relevant.

Thank you once again, Mr. Vincent for creating a forum for us to appreciate our fellow bloggers!

  1. Amayzung. I kinda sidestepped the game, because there was a wind in the pines. Good to see you focused on the chrysanthemums.
