Good Morning!
I am at camp this week…. up early for a bike ride to start my morning before every one else gets up. 😀 I figure I can get in a little exercise this week so brought my bike.
Here is where I need your help. I have made the long list in the 2011 BBAW Awards in the following niche categories:
Best Audiobook Blog
Best Eclectic Book Blog
SSSSQQQUUUEEEEE!!!! Really, thank you, that is exciting 😀
Now I can only move forward in one category. I do LOVE LOVE LOVE audio and promote it to no end here…. but know a few other blogs that are super audio blogs too…. even more so than my own. I know I am an eclectic blog and love to read diverse styles of books. So the questions lies with…. which one do I go forward with?
Please let me know your thoughts and they will be taken into consideration. Just when I think I have chosen…. my head goes the other way…. 😛
Thank you in advance for your help.
As for camp day one…. awesome. I really thought it might be a bit scary, but really….. everyone is soooooo nice. Already I have laughed and cried several times….
Also – on another note….. it is not too late to sign up for a Blogger interview swap for BBAW week. Trust me, this is a lot of fun.


i am not a blogger but as much as i love your blog (look forward to the randomness of the meanderings) i would go with the audio nomination…your passion forit and the sheer number that you listen to (i would be confused with 3 going at once) make it seem like a natural
glad the camp is going well
Thanks Diana 🙂 Camp is really amazing.
Well, for me that’s a no-brainer…eclectic!
But that’s because my interests lie in that area. Either way, good luck and congrats for the nominations.
Thats the way I was originally going Laurel…. 😛
Oh, yeah, I’m with Laurel. Go for eclectic. Should have much wider appeal. Never a bad thing, eh? 😉 Good luck to you Shelia!
Thanks Julianna!
That’s a tough decision, but I think I’m going to say audiobooks because you do promote them more than most people.
Thanks Kathy…. 🙂
Congrats, Sheila. I don’t think of your blog as an audiobooks blog, but then I don’t listen to audiobooks myself, so if you mention them, I don’t pay particular notice.
Have fun at the camp.
Thanks 😀
Congratulations! I say stay Eclectic. You’re too “huge” to be one thing. I don’t think you would feel happy. Hope this helps you make a decision.
Thanks Tea! 😀
Wow, congratulations Sheila! Hmmmm, difficult choice but I would go for eclectic…..or maybe audiobook….no, eclectic…….oh I don’t know! 😉
GAH! I feel the same way! 😛
First of all, congratulations on the nominations!
I think of your blog as eclectic. You could compete in either category, but that’s where I would put you. 🙂
Thanks Leslie… I am having such a hard time deciding and the votes are almost even here 😀
Congrtulations!!
You do post a lot of audio reviews, but your blogs has reviews of so many different genre, I’d go with eclectic.
Good Luck!
Thank you Vicki 😀
Congrats on your making the long list! I’m not sure which you should go with though, I guess the generic response would be, go with the one that feels the most natural fit for where your blog is today. Personally, I think it fits both, so I’m not sure.
Thank you Ryan… I feel the same way…. I do promote a lot of audios…. but I am also very eclectic…
Huge congrats!
Thank you!
Congrats!! That is fantastic! Based on my experiences last year, I think there might be less competition in the audiobook category … there are SO MANY blogs that could be considered eclectic. Best of luck!
Thansk Jenners – I am kind of leaning that way – mainly becuase that is where I can think of that I have some pretty good posts.
