Best Writer's Blog

posted Friday, 24 February 2006
Yesterday I received an e-mail from Deborah at  Writer’s Blog Alliance informing me that I'd won the "Best Writer's Blog" contest.              


Apparently, each blog that will be in the 2006 Writer’s Blog Anthology was included in the contest.

I am honored and humbled by this pleasant surprise. Thanks to everyone at the Writer’s Blog Alliance for making me feel right at home.

And I would urge you to go check out all of the great writing you can find at their site.

The laurels just keep rolling in and every one is a credit not just to your writing talent but to the depth of your perceptions in discussing a broad swath of events and circumstances.

What I find most spellbinding is what you are able to do with the greatest economy of words. You say, “palm trees enrapture” and "a lonely 100 foot palm tree leaping vertically towards the heavens, as if starved for attention" (Taking It Personally, 2/23/06) as you intermingle discussion of the duties that inhabit the day for you and those with whom you serve. There is no darting back and forth between the beauty of an ancient land and the barbaric concept of a suicide bomber, but rather there is a flow that makes the whole both a contrast and a seamless continuity of life that is Iraq for our best and bravest. It is hard to imagine being transported 7000 miles in just a few seconds, but you do it with regularity!

Congratulations, yet again!
