Shameless Self-Promo

Yippee! Books, Words, and Writing has been short-listed in the Best Book/Literary Blog category of the 2007 Best of Blogs Awards.

If you’d like to vote for it, you can vote daily until Friday 13 April. Voting is simple; just go here.

Alternately, you can click on the link I’ve put up in the left sidebar.

I think the winner will be (and should be) Kimbooktu. If I weren’t voting for myself, I’d vote for her. But I’m not that generous.
