Readers Love My Blog - An Award!

I am honored to receive this prestigious award, given to me by my mentors and inspiration- Nikita and Guardian Angel (aka Guardian Cuala)!

Nikita has always inspired me and encouraged me to do my best. Thus, this award comes as a huge present for me. Thanks a ton dear :D

She thinks:

Meghna is a wise 13 year old blogger and she’s just brilliant! She writes stories and poems…all her own and she is so creative in her writing, that you would think she’s a professional writer! I think she’s on the brink of a fantastic career as a writer, she just needs that one publisher..Did you know that Beatrix Potter had about 4 publishers that sent her books/works back to her, telling her they were not interested! but she was determined and that’s what Meghna is like…she just keeps on writing…I think she’s got some sort of machine…spitting out all those wonderful stories. Do yourself a favour and read her blog.

Guardian Angel- "My blogging guardian" as I lovingly call him, is the best person, always present there with his timely help and support! A huge thanks to you too....

This is what he says about me

This young Indian girl claims that she is learning from my blogs but unknowingly, I am the one who is learning from her. Besides her wonderful stories about her school, life and other experiences, I admire most her poems and style in writing. I truly believe she will be among the top bloggers of her time.

:smiling wide:

Here's the award:

And as I've to pass it on to 7 others. Here they are:

1. Adityan- ADI!!! A budding blogger like me trying to establish himself in the blogosphere. I'm fascinated by our similarities.....He owns a great blog and we are almost the same age so you can see the connect :)
2. Nadine- A friend since I started blogging....and a very good one too. She writes fabulously and is a dear dear inspiration!
3. Soursih Bhaiya- Can I ever forget him?? One of the best brothers around!!!
4. Cindy Di- Sweet sissy! Love her loads :)
5. Divi di- Ah.....a cutie-pie!! A real sweet elder sis!
6. Solitaire- Her stories and writing leaves me in a trance!
7. Sameera Di- One of the best....best...best...writers I've ever met!!!

You people really deserve it guys and I'm really sorry I couldn't give it to mroe people....but yes, this stands for all! And I request the above receivers to kindly carry on the tradition and pass it on to 7 others!
