Hi Quirk
It's always risky choosing from such a crowd because you always leave out very deserving people, but from my latest readings:
Funniest male -- Joe Love. His humour runs consistently, like a thread, through his writing...
Funniest female(s) -- Usual Suspect and Renigade, a couple of very, very funny ladies.
Most Cheerful -- I'll skip this, there are too many...
Crabbiest -- I'll skip this, there are too many....
Most helpful -- Ariala with all her tips on writing and marketing. I found L.E. Gant very helpful, too, while he was here.
I could add a lot of other names, too, if we had categories for most enthusiastic, most alluring, most dream-worthy, most foul-mouthed, most mellow, most fiery -- wait a minute, those little statues cost money, don't they?

3 out of the 5 were writing related...and blogit is not ALL about the writing...it is about personalities, too--hence...personality awards! Well you didn't vote anyway!

Midnight
I really really appreciate the thought and to be honest, this was a hard decision for me. This place and the amazing people have saved my sanity the past months. But the drama is too much...for I do not take money that could be well spent elsewhere to have page after page after page of it. I was happy to pay because of the people here but at this point and time in my life, I have plenty of my own drama on a daily basis.
