Please note that some of the items listed may have higher ratings than this item, but I have used the bitem format so you will be informed and can use your judgment on whether to read them or not.

When I want to go back and revisit an item more than twice, it goes on this list.

Sometimes it takes me as long as a month to award an item I especially enjoy and I don't always remember to do it.

All the authors listed here have my undying gratitude for giving me such great reading and creativity!

I hope that you will visit them and check out ALL their work!

*NOTE* As of 9/8/09, I have a new policy. If a link is invalid, I will remove the link unless and until the writer lets me know oherwise.

Also, if someone I have awarded here does not behave in a polite manner towards me, the link will be gone permanently! I do not want to recommend someone who doesn't act in a civil manner. Believe it or not, this has happened. Go figure.
