Around the time I was getting that BBC Audio Drama Award, I received a comment on this blog from Wendy of Good Books for Young Souls telling me that she had honoured me with a LIEBSTER BLOG AWARD.
The word 'Liebster' is German for 'beloved' and this award is given by bloggers to bloggers of blogs with fewer than 200 followers in recognition of the fact that their blogs are enjoyed (even 'beloved') and in the hope that this added recognition will lead to their being read and followed by many more people.
The rules are simple: you don't have to accept the award, but if you do, you are asked to thank the blogger who nominated you and nominate five of your own favourite blogs.
Even though I have kept to blogs (as opposed to websites) this wasn't easy because (as you will see from the side-bar on the right) I follow a great many blogs... Anyway, here are five diverse blogs that are well worth a look...
1 Attempted Bloggery
2 Pencil Notes
3 Kevin Kidney
4 Gifts and Dreams
5 It's Always Something...
I hope you enjoy them even a little bit as much as I do...

Brian Sibley, Superstar! Hopefully it will be a case of everything good coming in threes.
Now if only I'd kept up my Blogs...
Oh, my goodness.......is that my blog that is #5 on your list or am I dreaming.....I think I have just fainted with joy.....I never knew...you never even hinted.....
of course, I have loved you secretly for ages and now this......love no longer unrequited. Wow.
All I can say is thank you, Brian, and I truly do love you.
Lo
Oh, wow, I can't believe it, you listed my blog at #4!
Thank you very much Brian, I'm really so honoured and pleased that you like it, please continue to follow it!
SharonM – Indeed, if only... ;)
Lo and Elana – Please note: the order in which I listed my five blogs of choice is NOT intended as a league table! I should have listed them alphabetically, so please consider them thus arranged! :)
Thank you, Brian! I am honored that you have bestowed the coveted, if previously unheard of, Liebster Blog Award on Attempted Bloggery. It's only fair to mention publicly that my own admiration of your blogs was extremely influential in my deciding to write a blog in the first place. So thankk you, Brian, not only for the recognition, but for the inspiration!
Many thanks, Brian.
Shabby Tattler* though, thinks more than three’s a crowd (more than just thee and me and he reading my blog) but, #itall, I guess he believes he’s all the company a chap needs in such a tiny shed.
