We won! My writing capabilities are in shock. For now, thank you everyone :) All glory due Allah.

Circum-Alert: Nominee in Ghana's 1st Social Media Awards!

So I just finished voting in Ghana's first social media awards - an initiative of BloggingGhana - and I must say, it was such a tough decision. But that's a good thing. It means there's a ton of great content out there! What's more, I found out about some blogs I never knew existed and of course I immediately followed their owners via twitter. Congratulations to all participating blogs! Also, Circumspecte.com (Yes, this blog!) is a finalist under the "Best Citizen Journalism Blog" category. I've never actually described myself or this blog as "citizen journalism", so it's really humbling to be considered as such. Why? Because it means that all this writing - something I simply enjoy doing - counts for something. That in itself is enough. Thanks to all who've read, written to me, challenged, supported and egged me on. You can vote till March 8 at www.blogcampghana.com/voting  I couldn't have wished to be in better company....
