Thanks to you, I'm a nominee!
Well, I am one of about 12 trillion people nominated for the Clik Magazine Elite 25! I think that's pretty awesome, don't you?
I have no idea how many people nominated me, but a lot of my homies, bros, and friends are telling me that they did. I am so grateful! Hugs, grips, and dap to all of you.
So that means I'm going to Atlanta! The Awards are going to be held at the Fox Theatre, which looks pretty grand. There will be a Red Carpet and everything -- I should hire a publicist to hold my hand and take me away from the paparazzi so I can smile, shrug and say "I gotta gooooo..." just like J-Lo. (LOL that was SO an inside joke that you kinda had to be there for.)
Then there's gonna be a meet and greet, the actual award announcements, a champagne toast, and an afterparty. Not bad for a Thanksgiving weekend affair.
It's sorta quick notice, but I am excited. I'll fly into Atlanta on Friday morning and try to meet up with as many of my friends as possible. I'd also like to visit with some frat brothers while I'm there. Perhaps take a tour of the Atlanta University Center.
So yeah.... if you want to attend this event, just visit clikhonors.com for more info.

Congratulations, Rashid! (BIG SMILE) You DESERVED to be nominated. I just subscribed to Clik Magazine last month, but hadn't participated in the nomination process until you requested us to. I'd love to see the list of nominees, especially in the literary category. Has that been made public? Do you know?
