Iwa ni Hana at The Anime Blog Awards

I am pleased to say that psgel of Star Crossed Anime Blog put forth the name of Iwa ni Hana in the Best Editorial Blog and Most Thought-Provoking Blog categories. (Many thanks for your kind appreciation, psgel.) I also received a personal email from the staff running The Anime Blog Awards and it would appear that the voting happens on April 1st.

To be honest, I think the comments of readers of this blog are probably more insightful than my own posts. Readers regularly post illuminating essays in the comment section of this blog. Personally I would like to nominate AniPages Daily in the Best Editorial Blog category as soon as I figure how to register etc.

The thing is, I think I am brought up in such a way that I take a detached attitude towards competitions of any kind - I don't feel too much joy if I win and I don't feel let down if I lose. But I will see.

Dear Wabi Sabi,

1. The "register" button is at the sidebar in the middle column, at the bottom of the sidebar. Just register with your nickname, blog address (so that it will appear in the randomizer) and your email.

2. Ya, I initially didn't find out about your blog, but psgel's recommendation made me change my choice. Many of your entries are very thought provocative, and I like it so much that I change my vote for it.

3. There will also be a reader's poll after the blogger's choices. More information will be released soon \o/

Impz:

1) I registered but I can't seem to figure out how to nominate in the comment section from that point on...

2) I would like to nominate http://www.pelleas.net/aniTOP/ but then I read the rules and realized that its latest post is dated Feb, so it would be ineligible for nomination, which is quite a pity...

3) I think I would also nominate Bangin's blog devoted to Japanese anime words at http://bangin.wordpress.com/ (as soon as I figure out how).

Nice anime blog,5 out of 5 stars.

Thank you for the 5 out of 5 stars...
