Honoring the Authors - DANIEL

Well the results are in, and here the are. The first ever Honoring the Authors segment has been complete and I must say I'm pleased with the response it has gotten and all of the people that voted.

With legendary baits such as Ironic Nonfiction, Steamboat Disney, I, Bergman, E.L, Bloodshed, and just recently A New Agenda, Daniel has solidified his position as to being one of the best authors in the contest. His first bait was released in June of 2006, a crafty veteran who is known for his well rounded skills and baits with heart. He is only the second author in BaO history to have won Best Author twice. 10 baits of his have been elected in the top 10 in their respective months, 2 of which have been #1. With all of these credentials, Daniel has now made more history, being the first author to be honored on my site, and it has been a true honor to read your baits.

Without any further ado, here are the nominations for Daniels "All-Star" ballot, and the winners.

No surprises, cause they were all well deserved. Congrats on being a great author Daniel and I can't wait to see your new baits.

wow A New Agenda might be on it's way to BOTY (unless something extraordinary comes out in the next 4 months). Great job Tony. I'll be sure to vote for the Josh one coming up

Wow, well I don't agree with all the wins, but I guess thats expected. totally agree with you bryce!

Yeah, and the funny thing, I would not at all be bummed if A New Agenda won BOTY or the fact that Daniel would be a two time winner. It was just that good of a bait (and personally a lot more deserving than Ironic Nonfiction).
