So today I received an email and things like this always make my day, I have been nominated again for a Rising Star Award in Law for 2018. I have just filled in the “Additional Information” that they require.
I never set up my blog to be nominated for awards or win them, but it does mean the world that people put me forward for them. I never expected anyone to read my blog, let alone nominate me for awards such as this. It is nice to know that the content I put out and share helps/supports/or is just of interest to my readers.
You will remember that last year I was nominated for a Rising Star Award and then made it into the Top 10 Shortlist for Rising Legal Stars 2018 which was just amazing – and I was so proud to get that far. You can read more about that here.
I am not sure whether I will get shortlisted again, but if not, thank you all, for your ongoing support and encouragement for my blog.
