Reality Blog Award

Awakenings was honored in January with the Reality Blog Award from Alastair. My sincerest apology goes to Alastair for being so late in responding to this wonderful award. January was indeed a hectic month since January 22 was the official release date of Awakenings from Then 'til Now.

Before going into the award, I want to tell you a little about Alastair. Alastair is cool! He has an awesome blog, Alastair's Blog, where he shares stories AND poetry, and features terrific photography AND great music. One of his latest additions in 2013 has been his amalgamations. He participates in various blog/writing challenges, i.e., Friday Fictioneers, Cee's Fun Foto Challenge, Phoneography Challenge, Share Your World - 2013, WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge, etc. As you can tell, he is one serious blogger! Check out Alastair's latest products @ Society6.
