Great news. I’ve just learned that ‘Moon over Martinborough’ is a finalist in the very exciting ONYA awards.
The ONYAs celebrate those who design, develop and create New Zealand’s best websites and applications.
One of the judges said, “Jared’s blog is engaging and entertaining; he is taking the Wairarapa to the World and doing so with aplomb…”
I’m one of three finalists in the ‘Best content (personal)’ category. Woo hoo! Check out the other great finalists I’m rubbing shoulders with.
Not bad for a blog about chickens and olives, eh?
