2009 Book Blogger Appreciation Week Starts

"2009 Blogger Appreciation Week" starts this September 14Th and goes on until the 18Th. Be sure and vote for your favorite Blogs. I am going to vote for mine. They also have cool BBAW stuff now like coffee canisters, and a cool mouse pad. This is my first year participating and I am honored just to be nominated for best new blog and historical/historical fiction blog. I am excited to to be a part of this. How you could you not love these pretty books over there.

I also got the down low on the who, what, when, where, and why this is so important.
From My Friend Amy:

"WHO Anyone who blogs about books is invited to participate. In fact, we want everyone who blogs about books and reading to be a part of this week!
WHAT A week where we come together, celebrate the contribution and hard work of book bloggers in promoting a culture of literacy, connecting readers to books and authors, and recognizing the best among us with the Second Annual BBAW Awards. There will be special guest posts, daily blogging themes, and giveaways.
WHEN September 14-18, 2009
WHERE Here at the new Book Blogger Appreciation Week Blog! (Please note that this year there are three separate blogs and feeds—one for the main event, one for giveaways, and one for awards.)
WHY Because books matter. In a world full of options, the people talking about books pour hard work, time, energy, and money into creating a community around the written word. I, Amy, the founder of Book Blogger Appreciation Week love this community of bloggers and want to shower my appreciation on you!"
