The last and final one is The Kreativ Award, which was given by Melissa (I Swim For Oceans)!

2. I have a plot in my head, which I would like to put into words this summer. Yes, this summer because I never have the time to write anymore...*sigh*

• Choco @ In Which a Girl Reads

• Lori @ Escape Between The Pages
• Holly @ Good Golly Miss Holly
