I'm Feeling Quite Proud
Peggy's Cove and Cliff Diver of Mazatlan
As a writer it is the reader who judges us by whether they read the entire article or story or not.
But it is also nice to be recognized by our peers.
I belong to the North American Travel Journalists Association. Every year they have a awards competition and I enter a few pieces.
I just received word that I has been awarded a merit award for a story on Italy I wrote, a merit award for a photograph I took of Peggy's Cove that was published in a Nova Scotia story in the Winnipeg Free Press, as well as a first place award for a destination marketing video I did on behalf of the Winnipeg Convention Centre.
Interestingly, I won three awards last year as well. A merit award for a cruise story I wrote, a merit award for a photo I took in Mazatlan that appeared in the Winnipeg Free Press, and a first place award for a brochure I created for the same organization, the Winnipeg Convention Centre.
I will post both this years and last years photos herein, and put in the award winning Italy story tomorrow.

When we were in Vegas in early Dec, the Aria and Elvis Show were not yet open. I can't wait to go back and experience it all.
Looking forward to reading more of your adventures.
