Regular updates of sarcastic and irreverent nonsense.
Dark Globe artist awards – two more days of voting left!
Posted by on 12/29/2011
Howdy peeps. Hope you are all enjoying your Christmas break if it is still going. I hope you enjoyed your Christmas break if it has finished. Mine is still going and I am enjoying it immensely.
Diligent followers of this here blog will know about the Dark Globe awards going on over at The Dark Globe. I am one of the five finalists for the Writer of the Year category and there are still two more days of voting left! Head on over there to cast your votes for the three categories by looking at the list of finalists here and then posting a reply saying who you are voting for. As of this moment I am just about in front but anything can happen between now and when the voting ends on the 31st December.
So, erm, get on over there and vote!
Seeing as I am in a self-promoting mood I may as well mention that I am currently updating my books. All three of them. Diary of a Dork and Shelter from Thunder have had their covers completely redone. Slaughter in Barnaby Close has had a considerable update to it’s content. There is still more for me to do and I am working on updating the content to Diary and Shelter as of this moment.
They are still free and they are in the ‘My books’ section at the top.

All done for you playa, good luck and happy holidays to you too! Hope you’re enjoying with Ratched, Baggins et al, you party animal you. Easy on the sherry.
Thank you kindly Mr Kicking sir.
We have all been having an interesting time back here. Ratched poured out what everyone thought was some sloe gin, but is actually slow-acting poison. The atmosphere is tense as you can probably imagine.
Already voted for you. I could shave my beard and try to vote again. That’s how us Americans used to do it. Hope you win!
You sneaky Yanks! I long for the days when you used to just smash the front door in rather than bother with all that stealthy nonsense.
Voting: Josh in pics, Michael in writing.
Thank you kindly Frank. Less talk about Josh though, this is about me.
Diary of a Dork is deffo worth a read 😀 I need to check out the other two
Ha ha, you liked it then? Most of the characters are based around people I worked with.
Yes I did :D, I wish I have worked with the people you have rather than the boring idiots I tend to get lumbered with!
I voted for you, Michael. I hope my vote helps get you to the top!
Cheers!
Thank you very much Lisa! Every single vote is precious.
Damn, I almost forgot to vote and then you would no longer like me! Not now you have so many followers. I’m getting afraid that one day you’ll forget your good old NBI. But okay, you deserve all of those followers, that’s true!
I will never, ever forget NBI or RFB. I remember my first visit to your blog where I left silly comments about dubstep music. It’s been many laughs since that fateful day.
If the followers number you see is around the 300 mark that’s not actually the true number. For some reason WordPress have decided to include Twitter and Facebook friends which is stupid.
Also I think you have the award in the bag, dunno about me, clearly don’t have the following the others in my category do haha
Yeah, the amount of votes for Blog of the Year category has been insane.
I’ve been over and voted for you Michael.
I still don’t understand how I missed being nominated tho! hehe Hope you win!
Yay, cheers Brenda!
There is no justice in this world sometimes.
hi Michael… I voted for you and wish you the best of luck… I’ll be reading Barnaby Close sometime in 2012 – it’s one of my resolutions for the new year… 😉
Thank you Buddha, you are very kind.
Feel free to let me know how you get on with the pleasant people in Barnaby Close.
