[The coveted Sheep trophy]
Boogity Boo Awards 2012
To celebrate the two year anniversary of I Smell Sheep we once again bring you the ever loved and most coveted Boogity Boo Awards! The Boogity Boo Awards are held annually to honor all the wonderful folks who took time out of their busy lives to interview with us. We thank you and give each of you the opportunity to win one of
four coveted I Smell Sheep trophies. In addition our site will donate a sheep, in the winning authors' names, to a third-world family in need through the amazing organization World Vision.
As you, our Academy, makes your vote you will also be entering for a chance to win a $20 gift-card from one of the following: Amazon, Barnes & Nobel or the Book Depository.
Honorable Mentions~ I would personally like to first and foremost thank my Mother, Linda Dalton, for taking the time to let me interview her in 2011. She had hopes of becoming a children's author but passed at the beginning of this year. It's my wish and gift to her that some day soon I will be able to indie publish her book. I love you from the depth of my soul and miss you every day, keep dancing until I get there!
Pearls Cast before McPig for the constant support and friendship, Liz at Fictional Candy for being the badass mama she is, our Facebook group you all know how awesome you are, Joleene Naylor for including us in her Lot's O Links, a lot!
Four nomination categories are listed, you will be required to enter your vote for each one. Once your vote for each has been placed you will not be allowed to vote again.

Thanks, it is always cool when the authors play along with us
DeleteLove your blog. This is a fun contest.
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks. Sheep love right back at you! We got some great interviews coming up too.
DeleteGini Koch's Kitty and Martini should have been in the Sexy Couples category!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah...You also needed a "Fun Couple" category so Laura Bickles' Anya and Sparky could have gotten some recognition!
Otherwise, the contest is great.
Thanks! Maybe next year we can use that category. It was so much fun going through the interviews and picking the funny :)
DeleteFunniest Rapid Fire: 1

Sexiest Book Couple: 1
That's just...cool: 1
While I wish there'd been a Kitty & Martini choice for 'Sexy Couples', I understand why it's so hard to keep it to a few choices!
Maybe also a "favourite funny line from the book" category next year?
Thanks for the fun recaps!
Very entertaining! Loved Marjorie Liu's response, though poor old He-man left out again! :-)
ReplyDeleteThis was fun, thanks! And thanks to Gini Koch for pointing me here through her newsletter!

Yes! I just completed my first voting adventure in the Boogity Boo Awards 2012! Awesome contest. :)
ReplyDeleteI loved the questions. Happy 2 years. I can't wait until next year.:)
ReplyDeleteAll the authors listed above are worthy of winning. But I must say the Gini Koch is one of the funniest people on this planet. She's crazy, in a good way.
ReplyDeleteHave Pen will write and write and oh Gini Koch keeps writing and I may break a rib laughing or get all my cats licking me and meowing wondering if I need them to help me or if they should run. Gini could have been in ALL the categories too.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the giveaway! I had fun seeing the new authors (New to me) and reading about the ones I already know and love. Shouting out to ALL the authors. Loved the quotes :-)
