May I be permitted a spot of narcissism?
Wampum, a great blog in its own right, has opened up nominations for the 2005 Koufax Awards — awards for left-of-center/liberal blogs. Although I blog here at TMV and am happy to call myself a moderate, broadly speaking, I think my work at The Reaction qualifies me for that sector of the blogosphere.
If you like The Reaction, please click here and nominate it in one or more categories (scroll down to the comments section) — some appropriate categories might be Best New Blog, Best Writing, Best Series (for my Signs of the Apocalypse), and Most Deserving of Wider Recognition.
Or, of course, if you don’t like what I do, or if you think I deserve to win a “Worst” award, go ahead and e-mail me and let me have it. Or just comment below on much you dislike me. It’s all good.
There are some incredible left-of-center/liberal blogs out there, and I certainly don’t expect to win anything (nor even to be a finalist for anything), but I thought it worthwhile to dispense with humility for a moment and to give it a shot.
Again, click here.
But this isn’t just about me. Nominate your other favourites. I’ve done so already.
AND PLEASE GIVE MY FELLOW TMV CO-BLOGGERS YOUR SUPPORT, TOO. SOME OF THEM CERTAINLY QUALIFY FOR THESE AWARDS — AND ALL OF THEM DO GREAT WORK.
