Taylor Swift Is Songwriter-Artist Of The Year

Taylor Swift attended a private event in Nashville on Sunday where she was named song-writer artist of the year by the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI).

This was the third time in four years Taylor has won the award.

"I thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so generous with me," Swift said after accepting her award. "Whether it was telling fairy tales or sad stories or stories that were just about my life and what I was going through, you've been wonderful to me. And I'm having a blast telling stories."

    wow, i would be a little embarrased and try to fugure out why no guy would want to stay with me. She probably thinks that if a guy asks you out that they are then your boyfriend and she calls and texts them twenty times a day.
