Awards are important. Let’s get that straight right from the beginning. Awards give the winner recognition. But when awards spring up everywhere you look, and awards are given away easily these days, I get my doubts. Is the award deserved? Is it deserved by the winner, more than someone else who did not receive an award? Is the person or institution giving the award doing it without an ulterior motive? I’m not a party pooper. And I don’t want to be an award-pooper either. After all, I have also won the odd award (and prize money). And I don’t mean a lucky draw. So why am I suspicious? I guess that with so many awards flying around, it’s difficult to differentiate between true awards, and spin camouflaged as awards. A good indicator is whether the giver of the award scrambles to get more publicity for himself than for the winner. Remember that the next time you get an award! |
