Thank you, Eunice Miller, for nominating me for this award.  It is an honor and a privilege to accept it. Readers, please stop by to visit Eunice’s beautiful and inspiring blog at  http://nutsfortreasure.wordpress.com/ Eunice has been one of my greatest supporters. She is always there to comment, encourage, share and even teach me some techy stuff about blogging. Needless to say, she is very deserving of this award. The WordPress Family Award is reserved for folks in Cyberspace who are  unceasingly kind, sympathetic, encouraging, and open to laughter—and who keep each other going by sharing, commenting, and making personal connections even though they may actually be virtual strangers.

  • Display the award logo on your blog.
  • Link back to the person who nominated you.
  • Nominate 10 others you see as having an impact on your WordPress experience and family.
  • Let your 10 Family members know you have awarded them.

I want to say a special “Thank You!” to ALL of the outstanding bloggers who so faithfully support and encourage me here at http://www.4writersandreaders.com/. I invite everyone to visit these wonderful blogs.

Very Inspiring Blogger Award


4writersandreaders awarded 

“Very Inspiring Blogger Award”

Thank you for this honor!

Thank you fellow bloggers! Bette A. Stevens

Thank you, Petrel141 of the blog http://dearkitty1.wordpress.com/ and Eunice of the blog http://nutsfortreasure.wordpress.com/ for nominating http://www.4writersandreaders.wordpress.com for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award! You are both, along with all of the other blogger friends in my community, a great inspiration to me. You continually amaze me with your wonderful posts that teach, encourage and inspire me to be a better writer and a more competent blogger. As The Bard would say, “Thanks, thanks and ever thanks” to each and every one of you! I am humbled and honored to be a part of a fantastic community of bloggers.  Bette A. Stevens http://www.4writersandreaders.wordpress.com

The rules of this award are:

1. Display the award logo on your blog
2. Link back to the person who nominated you.
3. State seven things about yourself.
4. Nominate fifteen other bloggers for this award and link to them.
5. Notify those bloggers of the nomination and the award’s requirements.

Seven things about myself are:

  • I am currently reading The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak: historical fiction with a twist. DEATH, the omniscient narrator follows a young abandoned girl during Hitler’s Holocaust. Not quite finished, but I highly recommend this read.
  • I am working on my first novel: 1950’s and ‘60s fiction.
  • I have a cat named Midnight, whose every wish I gladly fulfill. She has her own grooming table where her masseuse (that’s me) brushes, combs and massages her several times a day, while she manicures her nails on her very own tree cookie.
  • I have a wonderful husband, who is a veritable genius at just about everything. He’s turning our little old shack into a min-mansion.
  • My husband called me “fire woman” since I keep the fire box filled and the home fires burning when outdoor New England temperatures demand a respite from the cold.
  • I love art and find my treasures at local thrift shops and yard sales. Fifty of these great buys ($25 or less each) take turns adorning the walls here at the old homestead.
  • I encourage milkweed to grow and flourish in my flower gardens just so that I can marvel at the amazing Monarchs (nature’s stained glass sun catchers) as they fulfill their dreams.

My fifteen nominees are:
