Feministe is up for several Koufax awards this year, and although we’ve always been bridesmaids, we’re hoping to edge out for the finals.
The voting is supposed to end at midnight tonight, but I hear that Wampum is extending the voting period for another 24 hours since the servers went down during a power outage and upgrade. Don’t take my word for it. Vote tonight!
- Best Blog (non-professional)
- Best Single Issue Blog
- Most Humorous Post, for my post On Women and Blogging. But don’t vote for me! Vote for Roxanne’s April Fool’s project parodying Michelle Malkin called “The New Youth Craze.” It’s hilarious — the ads in the sidebar are brilliant — and I had a hand in the project.
- Best Post, for my oh-so-controversial post Consider the Hijab
- Best Group Blog
- Jill and I both for Best Writing (but you have to vote for one or the other, alas)
(Go Zuzu and Piny!)
I’m honored to be nominated with so many other folks out there, and so long as Kos doesn’t win anything I’m a happy camper.




I split votes all the time, and though nominated in the same Single Issue category, refused to vote for myself and split you with Pandagon and Alas.
Single issue? Weird definition.

Ha!
Lauren should be working on her short story.
I’ve heard far too many compliments about her penmanship (no pun intended).
I voted for you for best writing, Lauren but I WANT YOU BACK.
I clicked here mournfully, yearning to see you here, daily, then once or twice a week, and then I finally stopped, dispirited and resigned, and then today I decided to try again one last, desparate time, AND HERE YOU WERE.
If you stay I’ll change, I promise. I’ll write clever replies occasionally. I’ll read you every day and never take your posts for granted again.
