End of Year Nosedive

Well, this has not been the best of years. If stress were a commodity I would be rich. Think it finally caught up with me this week. Felled by a virus I succumbed to fever and panic and have been in bed for a lot of it.

Thus – I haven’t written any new blogs this week. While I will attempt to catch up it has somewhat scuppered my attempts to reach a target I was aiming for.

This year has been my best for views by far – I have already doubled the last best year. So looking for a new target I was aimimg for 20,000 by the end of the year. I am 800 short. Not likely to make that in the last 15 days of the year. Especially with the holidays coming up.

That said, I am still going to try! So prepare for an onslaught 🙂

Odd Stats

According to Amazon’s own Author Central – the ranking for all three of my books has shot up considerably – despite the fact that I haven’t sold any extra copies lately.

Wonder what’s going on?

 

Chasing Stats Again

So, I have beaten lasscreenshot_20161208_222740t years views by a mile. I have even surpassed the year before by quite a bit. In fact, this has been the best year stats wise for my blog since I started it.

Just wish that some of it would translate into some clicks and sales of my books. Hey-Ho. Anyway, that’s not really why I do it. I enjoy it and I love the little network I have discovered of like-minded people.

But that doesn’t change the fact that I get addicted to chasing stats. As I have surpassed all previous records I have to aim for something new.  So I am aiming for 10000 views by the end of the year and 1000 followers. The first is possible at my current rate. The second maybe not – need to add just under 100 in a few weeks.

Let’s see how it goes.

Very Quiet

No visitors today … watching the tumble weed tumble by.

New Reader – no Readers!

The new reader? Well I have to admit – I quite like it.

It looks very clean and modern. I don’t like all the changes WordPress have made lately but I like this one.

However – has it got anything to do with the fact that no-one is reading my blog today!
