Just thought I'd put this out there: for the 2nd year in a row, TheSkiDiva blog has been named Best Ski Blog by the North American Snowsports Journalists Association!
Truly, I'm honored.
Here's a comment from the judging panel:
Wendy Clinch, a former Hirsch Award winner and braintrust behind The Ski Diva, knows three things: her audience; skiing; and the best ways to integrate the two [I have to interrupt here. I love that they called me a ‘braintrust’]. A solid, prolific writer, Clinch clearly devotes significant time to the original researching and reporting of each weekly column, something that sets her apart in the genre. Whether she’s profiling the women who make it to the top of today’s skiing circles or introducing us to the latest in women’s basewear, Clinch does her homework. She doesn’t just tell us that Andie’s Outdoor Undies are great for women; she tries them out and explains the intricacies. Trust me, her women readers wanted to know. Clinch should be the premier go-to writer for women who ski – and for the men who know women who ski.
I've added this to my blog, right above the one I have from 2016. Pretty cool, eh?
