SOME #bookgame ENTRIES TWITTERGAME

I mentioned a few days ago that I’d joined in with Foyles Bookshop in London’s weekly #bookgame over the past few months, and, whilst I never expect for my own humble, semi-rural efforts to be sophisticated enough to compete with the high and mighty of the mighty Metroliterati, I have been surprised to get “honorable mentions” (i.e. not actually a winner, but generally considered to be not bad) on two separate occasions now. 

This is, of course, only due to the fact that if you throw enough snowballs you are almost bound to hit the target occasionally, but there you are. It still left me feeling rather chuffed to little mintballs for a moment or two, and when you’re me, you need to seize those moments for all their worth. 

I wonder if it’s obvious which ones they picked out from amidst the chaff?
