    This is great, thanks to chanson and MSP for just being so awesome. No kidding, I think Chino and chanson are single- (or double) handedly making ALL exmos fabulous and upping our game to new levels. Love to all, and FLAK rocks. 🙂

    Thanks so much! I couldn’t have done it without mormonism.

    Does SML get to post one of those award thingies too? Ours was a joint production.

    I guess I will have to re-open the blog, just so I can use my prize.

    There were some great nominees and nominations. Amazing writing (and works of art) by many.

    I hope next year, more nominees and nominations from various places on the internet will surface. There are some very creative, intelligent folks out there with stunning, poignant and funny things to say.

    And here on MSP (or other places) we don’t always get exposure to that. So I will definitely be keeping a personal list of great writing/work – and I recommend others in the post/fringe/ex/whatever mormon community do as well!

    Of course — I should have mentioned her artwork.

    But I have a question: How do I get the button to put on my site?

    Normally, you can just right-click on the image of your choice and you’ll get a menu with the option of saving a copy of the image. After that, how to add it to your blog or site kind of depends on which software you’re using.

    Leah–You can also right click one of the images above, go to properties, copy the url address given, and then past the url on your page using the appropriate html coding.
