Not to replace the more in depth sources but in addition to them.<br /><br />So far this blog fills that niche.<br /><br /> http://tonyspage1.blogspot.com/ by Tony Moffitt.<br /><br />He also has his own art blog, a critique blog and a novel blog.David Teterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747334525619423349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-25175166872751026532012-01-02T22:57:16.883+00:002012-01-02T22:57:16.883+00:00Congratulations to all the winners.
I had thoughts...Congratulations to all the winners.<br />I had thoughts on nominations for other categories but simply could not narrow them down.<br /><br />Katherine,<br />Kudos to you too for your THOUGHTFULNESS and judgement in allowing the votes to stand for Suzanne Berry's "Ant".<br /><br />Your awards, your rules, you could have disallowed and no one could argue.<br />Instead, you know there is (and always should be) a human element to things, common sense. Something computers (and many corporations) still don't possess.<br /><br />Here in the States they (whoever that is) let a computer determine the rankings in college football, based on stats only, how dumb.<br /><br />I am a proponent of sticking to the rules, they are there for a reason, so I won't that mistake again but I'm happy that you, a human with an ability to look past mere stats and make a judgement was in charge.David Teterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747334525619423349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-1001758859380787182012-01-01T19:31:38.403+00:002012-01-01T19:31:38.403+00:00hi katherine,
