Girl in the D garners another "Best of Detroit" award

Imagine my surprise when a representative from Ambassador magazine contacted me back in October to tell me that Girl in the D had been chosen as Best Blog by the publication's readers.

Not having been a reader of Ambassador at the time, I had no idea that a reader's choice poll had gone on or that Girl in the D was in the running.

Needless to say, I am deeply humbled by the accolade. Thank you to everyone that voted for my little blog that highlights Detroit's positive side!

And thank you for bringing Ambassador to my attention, because I now have yet another local publication to enjoy.

Published by two Detroit powerhouses, Denise Ilitch and Dennis Archer Jr., this bi-monthly magazine is full of articles and photos by an elite team of Detroit-area writers and photographers. I especially enjoy "Letter Home", a regular feature written by Detroit-born individuals whose lives have taken them elsewhere, but who will always consider Detroit home.

Ambassador is available at Southeastern Michigan-area Borders, Barnes & Noble, Kroger, Holiday Market and Nino Salvaggio stores.

Girl in the D highlighted in MI Life MI Times article

I want to give a big thanks to Nettie Boivin for interviewing Girl in the D for a story in this week's edition of MiLife MiTimes.

The article, titled "The Ultimate Guide to New Media in Michigan", is about the new and highly-interactive citizen journalism outlets that have exploded across the U.S., including Michigan, in recent years. Examples include blogging, ezines and Flickr groups.
