Grace Under Pressure
Okay, one confesses that one's head must be buried in the sand, for it was only ten minutes ago that one realised that one's blog had been nominated for the Best Humanities Indiblog at the Indibloggies. (This business of writing about oneself in second person is becoming increasingly affected, and must cease.)
Now, while one would like to express gratitude to those responsible -- thank you, guys, thank you -- the fact is that this collection of links to articles, reviews and interviews isn't really a good choice, nor is it representative of what a good humanities "Indiblog" ought to be.
Without any false modesty, then, one exhorts you to go forth and vote for the others in contention: Will it be this one? This one? Or this one?

Even if the modesty is genuine, one must cease it immediately. One knows the blog does in fact deserve it. (Besides, one must not question the judgement of the venerable jurors!)

I think One is being too modest. If the amount of reading pleasure one derives from a blog is the criterion, then you are right up there with the rest. Maybe even slightly upper ;)

One has somehow mastered the nebulous art of gathering consistently interesting links, made piquant with pithy commentary. Many a prolix wordsmith would fain to achieve such impact.
One's page deserves the accolade.

We pay no attention to your protests. In fact we find it sort of umm endearing.
