A little announcement about the logo contest — I’m pushing the deciding date back to August 14, in the hopes of receiving a few more entries. So far I’ve gotten some incredibly beautiful entries from people as far away as Poland! I’ll make an announcement on my site on August 14, so stay tuned for that.
And… I feel a little shy about this. But here goes — it’s time for the 2007 Black Weblog Awards, and I’d love Afrobella to be nominated. I feel pretty weird about asking you all, but rules are rules — you can’t nominate your own blog, but you can encourage readers to nominate you. If those weren’t the rules, I’d have nominated myself, like I did for the blogger’s choice awards. (I felt whimsical and I was up late. What can I say?)
There are some cool categories this year, but no Best Beauty Blog. Are there so few of us? I don’t fit neatly into a beauty category anyway. Either way, if you like my site and want to encourage me on my journey, I’d appreciate your support. Love and respect to you all!

Hey Bella,

Hey Bella,
You have my nomination.
Hey Bella, I nominated you for more than one category for the awards. I hope you win. Thanks for all the Afrobella love for us to do this blog. Much more success!
Thanks, you guys! It means a lot to me!!! =)
One more nomination from this end.
Done and done! I love your site!
Bella, if you don’t get nominated, something is seriously wrong. I voted for you in at least 3 categories
Song At Midnight
Brothers,
this big woman
carries much sweetness
in the folds of her flesh.
Her hair
is white with wonderful.
She is
rounder than the moon
and far more faithful.
Brothers,
who will hold her,
who will find her beautiful
if you do not?
