Whoa! Such a
pleasure this is! I check my blogger profile and the the next thing I know -
there is a comment awaiting my attention. Not pertaining to a blog post of mine but to a you-have-received-an-award
message.
My first
blog award! :)
I started
Cosmuse almost a month back in mid-June while most at home were enjoying their
vacations. This was my way of enjoyment. Writing!
I didn’t
know what my posts would consist of; I didn’t know if I’d be able to get any
readership; I didn’t know if anyone would appreciate my efforts. All I knew was
I had to give some more time to my passion. I had no writing schedule. Busy
past midnight in all works but writing… it wasn’t really satisfying.
But here I am!
Learning new art forms; writing each day; thinking; observing and loving it
all.
Thanks to
Green Speck for considering me, a newcomer here, for this honor. SO kind of him. I never
thought that Cosmuse would have an award so soon. Well, I am chuffed, so say
the least.
Thank you!
