“sticks of fire reigns supreme”
The Weekly Planet has published this year’s Best of the Bay.
We are happy to report that Editor’s choice for Best Local Website is none other than Sticks of Fire. Editors at the Weekly Planet say “Sticks of Fire reigns supreme” and is an “outstanding gateway to Tampa…” We here at Sticks are very proud of the designation, and will continue to be more than just a blog. Hooray us!
Editor’s choice for Best Blog went to none other than Dave Piniero’s Tampa Rail. Way to go!
Reader’s choice for Best Blog went to Midnight Culmination. Sticks of Fire got third place in reader voting after the now-defunct bayciti (you’re still missed, justin).
Thanks to all of you who voted for Sticks of Fire. Congratulations also to Dave, rachel*, and justin. You all are most definitely worthy. Hooray all of us!
There should will be a party to celebrate this accomplishment. Details coming soon.
