Blog Awards!

Holy crap guys! Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I would be getting my 2nd and 3rd blog awards this fast! What?! You don't know what I am talking about?! Well Victoria from over at Confessions of a Twenty Something Fiction Writer has nominated me for two, yes I said two, more blog awards! How amazing could one gal be?!

Now, since I am doing both of these awards at once I am going to bend the rules just a tiny bit. Because if I used the guidelines for both I would be nominating so many blogs my head would spin! So I am going to go ahead and give you the deets for both and then let you know how I am going to spin it up! Sound good? Great! [:

Okay, so, for being nominated for the Versatile Blog Award means I get to do the following:

1. Nominate 15 fellow bloggers for The Versatile Blogger Award.
2. Add an image of the Versatile Blogger Award.
3. In the same post, thank the blogger who nominated you in a post with a link back to their blog.
4. In the same post, share 7 completely random pieces of information about yourself.
5. In the same post, include this set of rules.
6. Inform each nominated blogger of their nomination by posting a comment on each of their blogs.

And for the Kreativ Blog Award I have to:

Post 10 random facts about myself and then pass on the honor to 6 other worthy bloggers.

Which brings me to what I am actually going to do:

I am going to post 10 random facts about myself and nominate 10 other bloggers for both of these awards. I figured that would be the best way to do it so it is even across the board! So here we go folks...Let the random facts of myself begin!

-10 Things You Really Don't Want To Know- 
-About ShawnaLeAnn-
[But I'm telling you anyway]

1. I'm a huge band geek. Yes, as in marching band. The clarinet rocks my world people, get use to it. [:

2. I am a mommy to a wonderful almost 3 year old boy. He is crazy and eats everything in sight.

3. I have this fascination with sea otters that no one fully understands. Those little buggers are cute and I will get one some day!

4. I am the biggest Kansas City Chiefs fan you will ever meet. Okay, well maybe not the biggest but you know. GO CHIEFS! ;]

5. I refuse to squat outside and use the bathroom. No camping for this gal, unless plumbing is involved.

6. I have been put on probation once in my life. It was for truancy my freshmen year of high school. I'm such a rebel and trouble maker. [Oops.]

7. I hate pop. I am a 100% water drinker unless I am in a tea mood. Oh, and I drink cappuccinos but you know, those are addicting, so I am not at fault here...

8. I refuse to wear shoes if I don't have to. Therefore my feet are tough. You can put a cigarette out on my heel and I don't feel a thing.

9. I have only been to one live concert in my life. This fact is extremely distressing to me.

10. I can not stand to watch or even look at anything having to do with the movie Chucky. You know, that crazy doll that kills everyone? Yeah, childhood fear that has somehow stuck with me. That doll is creepy and I will run away screaming.
**** **** **** ****
Okay, yeah so, now you know all this odd and not so odd stuff about me. I tried to mix it up a bit for you all. Did you learn something new about me? Now, on to the bloggers I am nominating!! These are in no particular order mind you! Except maybe alphabetical. ;]
**** **** **** ****

Liebster Blog Award


So this wonderfully marvelous chick, Victoria, over at Confessions of a Twenty Something Fiction Writer nominated me for the Liebster Blog Award!

Thank you SO much Victoria! I am all flattered and such!  [:

Now, since I got nominated for this award, it is my turn to nominate 5 blogs with 200 followers or less! I really love that I got nominated for this because it is an awesome way to meet new up and coming bloggers and show you guys who I love to follow. So, here we go! In no particular order mind you....

The Nominees Are...

 --------------------------------
-Megan at Between The Lines-
I love this chick. She was one of my first followers and I can talk to her ALL day if we are left to it. I love her blog because she is a huge YA junkie like myself and has some pretty awesome reviews. If I am not stalking her blog, I am stalking her goodreads. So make sure to go stalk her too. She use to have a twitter, but I was just too distracting for her ;]

-Autumn at The Autumn Review-
How could I not mention with gal? She is crazy about the same books as me and she always has awesome recommendations [reviews, memes, pretty much everything!] I check her out everyday to see what she has to say. If you are a Ya or Adult romance reader, you need to check her out!

I met this gal when I first started my blog. Then I saw how awesome she was and that she loved YA. Not to mention she is a Hunger Games fan! Her reviews are great and she is a teacher! How awesome is that?

-Tabby at Insightful Minds-
I must admit, I have a bit of a steamy saucy side when it comes to books. This gal definitely feeds that. She has some amazing reviews and recommendations for Adult reads and I feel like I am always checking out her blog.

I really fell for this blog because of the background, yeah, I know, it's like judging a book by its cover...but I did! Her blogs super cuteness drew me in while her reviews kept me around. I make sure to check her out every day to see what she has been up to...maybe you should too...[:
--------------------------------

Now, if you didn't catch the hint above, you should check all of these guys out! I love them, so you probably will too. [: Can I just give one more HUGE thank you to Victoria? I was so shocked to be on her list you have no idea! I am honored and surprised people actually read what I write. Accumulating all these new followers and friends is so much more than I expected when I started this blog. Thank you all so much!
