I am a pretty new knitting blogger, so I have almost no readership at this point. Come to think of it, I have a very small audience at my non-knitting blog, so maybe I’m just not a good blogger

Would it be horribly presumptuous to self-nominate in hopes of getting people to read me?

Yes. The time table for nominations will be
* Nominations accepted from Monday July 31-August 14, 2006. (Chicago time.)
* Voting from August 16-30, 2006.
* Winners announced Sept. 1, 2006.
I’m making nomination forms first. People will be able to nominate.

I’ll publicize the nominations.

Then, I’ll make the ballots. I haven’t decided precisely how many will make the cut for the ballots. I think I want up to five per category. I’ll probably do that by most nominations in a category. I haven’t actually posted a rule yet.

I figure I’ll easily get 5 nominations in “best overall”, but I many only get 1 in “best stories about maladies”. If there are fewer nominated, in a category, then there will be fewer and that blog wins!

After that, we can all vote.

I am confused about your awards ceremony. Will we all be able to vote?
