Hi David,

Great blog! I particularly like the fact that you take into account the lesser-known blogs as well as the monsters.

Thanks for dropping by to my blog: http://www.dressedandpressed.blogspot.com/
and thanks for the kind comments and advice. I would love to be nominated.

Cheers,

D

Hey David, thanks for the comment you left on my blog...Ages ago now, but I haven't been around till this week to thank you due to stuff mostly out of my control, oh and just saw my blog on a couple of your newbie blogger lists (totally shocked me, but thanks)
anyway, I'll be back later to finish reading your recent posts, and see if you've posted any new articles, but bye for now,

Steph

Bart said...

14 again, huh. My slow conquest of the world is going even slower than expected...hrm.

Deb said...

DAVID, DAVID, DAVID...OMG!!! I have not been #1 at anything writing/computer related in so many, many years. This is thrilling and you can imagine my eyes...when I peeked at the award standings and me, little toiletpaper56 was #1. So, David has found something with my blog that is special, and all of you are welcome to take a peek and leave a comment or two. I try to be different, and unique, and always welcome a critique. I enjoy my daily linkers (linkees?)

Thanks again David, on behalf of all of us bloggers (some newbies, some oldies) for chances to get our blogs out to others.

Deb

Hi dressedandpressed,

I'm glad you liked the blog. Thank for taking the trouble to comment, too.
Got that nomination, too. Good luck.
Let me know how your blog progresses. I'm always available for assistance and you just need to buzz me here.
Cheers

David

david mcmahon said...

Hi Joel,

No worries at all. Your nomination is in.

Happy blogging

David

david mcmahon said...

Hi Steph,

Nice to hear from you again. Don't worry about things that are outside your sphere of control. Stay calm. Everyone goes though phases like that.
Would like to see som more of your writing. Keep at it.
Any advice, you know where to contact me.
Keep smiling

David

david mcmahon said...

Hi Animalswithopinions,

Got that nomination. And if AA Milne could create animals with opinions (Winniie the Pooh, etc) you certainly have carte blanche to do the same, my friend!

Take care and good luck

David

david mcmahon said...

Hi pokerbytireur,

Got those nominations. No worries.

Good luck

David

david mcmahon said...

Hi Lissa,

Richly deserved. Well done and look forward to more on your site.

David

david mcmahon said...

Hi Bart,

14 is good. Your conquest of the world has not taken a backward step yet.

It's a tough competition, buddy - and you've held your ground in a week where there have been some BIG slides down the ladder.

One week, when my novel `Vegemite Vindaloo' had come down from #3 to #4 on the bestseller list (on the same list as the Booker Prize winner and listed above Jeffrey Archer and Frederick Forsyth) I shook my head and thought: ``Gee, it's slid to #4.'' And then I got a grip and reminded myself that I was on a bestseller list with some of the biggest names in the business.

My message to you (and to everyone else reading this) is that you have already achieved so much. Even if you do slip, it's just the quality of the competition.

And therein lies the challenge. You have what it takes. But you have to prove it - EVERY week!

Chin up, mate. You can do it, and you will.

David

david mcmahon said...

Hi Deb,

Congratulations, you winner! That's a big leap, up from #10 last week.

It's a huge achievement - and you deserve it.

There's no need to thank me for encouraging bloggers. Someone's gotta do it, right!

Keep smiling and very well done.

David

david mcmahon said...

Hi Steve,

Got that nomination, thanks. Good luck with the site. Keep working on the areas I mentioned and you'll reap the benefits of your blog, which is a great concept.

Trawl through my blog archives and if there's anything you want to re-print on your site, I'll give you permission. Just let me know.

Cheers and keep in touch

David

david mcmahon said...

Hi Finn,

Congratulations and you really deserved it.

Keep at it, and if you need any advice you just need to buzz me here.

Cheers and good luck

David

david mcmahon said...

G'day McGlinch,

Thanks for the validation! You certainly have a way with humour.

Let me teach you a sentence of ``Aussie English''. Say ``Good on ya, mate'' and that is the ultimate compliment.

Cheers

David on the other side of the world where people are all right!

Jack Winter said...

Thanks for inlcuding my blog on the list this week, David.

As a new blogger I really appreciate it!

Thanks you
is best said
with my lips unparted
a smile brimming
but not yet
not yet showing;
my eyes closed
savoring the blackness
the feeling
of joy.
restraining
tears
from pouring,
making wet veins
on my cheeks
I put my hand on my chest
feeling my heart
even for a moment
beating a little faster
I feel that now
my thanks
better unsaid
to you
a friend

-- this is for you David, straight from my heart, man. Just saw me up there again.

More power. I appreciate the help- the eye over my shoulder, the encouragement..

I love that you're doing this. I always like discovering new blogs and what people are writing/posting about. So, here's my blog for consideration:
