Seven Awards!!

The awards are piling up 🙂 I’ve recently received seven awards (!!) and have saved them up for today: The Best Moment Award from chandanimane , The Super Sweet Award from Pallaksharma, the Liebster Award from franny stevenson, the Wonderful Team Membership Award from Ajay, the Sunshine Award from Kavita Joshi, and the Dragon’s Loyalty Award and Shine on Award from Melissa Janda! Phew!!

Now because I let them pile up I’ve decided to put them together so that there are only 1 set of rules for any one of them. This way I figure you’re not going to be faced with endless lists of facts about me 🙂 and it also means that nominated bloggers can choose from the selection! I think it’s a win/win situation!

Nominees: Hopefully you’ll happily accept the award (though there is of course no obligation to do so), post the picture of your Award on your blog and say who nominated you for the award and link their blog (in this instance; me :-)).

And now THE RULES!

  • Answer the 10 random questions or those of your own choosing.
  • Nominate 10 other bloggers for the Award and link their blog sites.
  • Notify the bloggers of their award.
  • Ask the award winners to answer the 10 questions when they accept their Award.

1. Do you have a goal in life? To seek out new life and new civilizations…

2. City or countryside? I love visiting cities but give me lots of land and the starry skies above (don’t fence me in ;-))

3. What was the last word you looked up in the dictionary? My dictionary app says it was Mardy (?) apparently – with no results, and Sastrugi (ridges of snow formed by the wind).

4. If you had a time machine where would you go? To the twenties but would want to come home after about twenty years 😉

5. Pirate or Vampires? Capt. Jack Sparrow compels me to say pirate.

6. Are you an easily satisfied person or you do you keep working to obtain something? I’m never satisfied with what I’ve done but hopefully I know when to stop!

7. Sweet or savoury? Savoury, and hopefully spicy too.

8. Do you believe in Karma? Absolutely.

9. What’s your favourite comedy film? Austen Powers – it has to be someone’s favourite, right?

10. Fantasy or sci-fi? Fantasy just pips it to the post.

Hi, I’m Jill, a writer and teacher living in the UK, usually behind a desk but sometimes on a sofa with a book or a film. I began writing at around age three, legibly by five, although I didn’t write any stories until I was older. Aged eleven, I began writing children’s fiction, mostly middle-grade fantasy and I’m still doing it to this day. I have had stories published online and in My Weekly magazine. The best bit about writing is when ideas pop into your head (from the writing fairy presumably?) and everything starts clipping together like a jigsaw puzzle. The worst bit? When you start to get the feeling there's a piece missing from the box...

  2. Wow! Congratulations, Jill! That’s a fantastic array of awards! And thank you so much for nominating me 🙂 I’m deeply honoured! One little thing: I’m not sure which award we’re talking about 🙂

    1. I was hoping that would be the beauty of this one: You get to choose! You’re certainly worthy of all of them 🙂 I noticed that lots of us keep getting the same awards and that it might be nice to “fill in the gaps”. I hope that doesn’t sound vacuous but maybe it is…;-)

      1. Good thinking, Jill 🙂 It’s going to sound silly but I’ve been rather keen on getting the Liebster Award for some time 😉

        Not at all! 🙂

        Thanks again 🙂

      2. I don’t blame you, I’ve been coveting that Liebster for a while myself 😉 Enjoy it my friend! In fact, I feel a bit like a fairy-godmother now, thank-you so much!

      3. Glad I’m not the only one 😀 I’ll post it either tomorrow or Friday 😉 I’m hoping that I get some books submitted for Thursday 🙂

        LOL! So you should 🙂

  4. Thanks for the nomination Jill! But I think I agree with all of your answers. Cap’n Jack can stow his whiskey bottle and mascara under my bed any time. 😀

    1. I’m so sorry Sweetie, I wasn’t very clear was I? Each nominee can choose any one of the awards, whichever they would like best. That way, I figured, everyone could get the exact award they want and not be too overwhelmed or disappointed 🙂

  6. Thank you Jill! So kind of you, and nice to see you are well appreciated by your readers. Like yourself, I have a few awards I have been hoarding, and think I will now take a leaf out of your book and combine the lot to pass on. As you pointed out, that is after all the fun bit! Have a lovely week. Take care.
