Open the Rocky Mountain Outlook on August 28, 2014, and you’ll see this piece written by Lynn Martel. It provides a bit more of the backstory of my blogging career and my perspectives on the outdoor blogging industry.
The articles starts with:
Banff blogger nominated for award
“A Banff outdoor writer and blogger is quite pleased to be among 20 of her peers nominated for USA Today’s 10 Best Readers’ Choice Award for Favourite Hiking and Outdoors Travel Blogger.
Meghan J. Ward, a mother, freelance writer and blogger living in Banff, said she was surprised to learn she was among the nominees for her blog, thecampsiteblog.com.
Unfortunately, however, she missed out on the initial announcement because she was at Shadow Lake Lodge in the Wi-Fi-free Banff backcountry with her 16-month-old daughter, Maya, and husband, photographer Paul Zizka, when the news was announced.”
Congratulations on your nomination! I think for the fact that you were off the grid and unable to learn of the nomination, you should automatically win!
Thanks Nick! I assume that some of the other bloggers were also off the grid. :)
