One year later, 132,923 Pageviews, 1143 Blog Followers, 1668 Twitter Followers, and 660 Facebook Page Likes, and I still love what I'm doing! I really can't believe I've been blogging for a year already. Time flies, doesn't it??? So, to celebrate I thought I'd offer you all the chance to win some of my favorite books and other goodies. Are you excited??? I know I am! I've got some great prizes lined up for the month, so be sure to stop by each week to see what I have for you.
Here are some things I've learned in my first year of blogging:
1. I won't always like the books I receive for review.
2. Always be honest, no matter what.
3. Blogging is A LOT of work.
4. Be very clear and stick to your guidelines.
5. Most important....I've made some really great friendships with other bloggers and authors. I wouldn't trade these relationships for the world!
Other fun facts:
I regularly check my stats to see what people like and what they don't. There are certainly some favorites and some regulars. One of the things I love to check are my common search terms that lead to my blog. Here are the most popular search terms that have lead to my blog in this past year:
Do you notice a theme???
All right, on to the good stuff. This is what I have for you this week...you ready???

(One of the last remaining, brand new indie versions of the novel)

Happy Anniversary--you've achieved an amazing following in just one year! It was 2 years for me in August and you are way ahead of me! Interesting stats . . . and I agree, this blogging thing is a lot of work, but fun work:-) Some days I feel like I'm a professional blogger instead of author though, lol.

ReplyDeleteBlogging is hard work.
I've read and really LOVED all of these except for the Stephanie Campbell books. I've read her collabo books but not these yet.
Happy 1 year!
