November Stats…
Happy December everyone! Hope Thanksgiving was great for all who celebrated. Hope everyone saved big on Black Friday and got all the door busters they wanted. I ran myself ragged, recovering the fitting rooms, straightening the store and walking over 3 miles inside Old Navy (and our store is a very small one compared to most other ONs) - I was asleep before 7:30 that night and slept straight through the night …lol…
☝🏻 That's a lot of hustle.. from map my walk app…
Now, on to the point of this post…
November began as a phenomenal month with daily views regularly topping 400… as we neared the holiday, the views lessened some, but we still had our second best month at 10,704 views for the month… that's an average of 358 per day, which is up 5 from October. Posts averaged 259 views for the month which is an awesome stat and up from previous months.
Submissions were a little light - 45. But that's normal this time of year. And, honestly, was a bit welcomed by me - I got a bit behind again, so the slow down has helped get me caught up.
And now that we're full into the Christmas season, I hope you enjoy the pieces that are scheduled for December.
Mina Beckett’s “A Winterberry Christmas” just wrapped up, and I hope you all enjoyed it. If you missed it, all 5 parts are available for free reading. It's a delightful story. So check it out.
Along with beautiful poetry and sweet romances, over the next few weeks, we'll continue to see episodes from Elise Gilmore’s “Cozy Christmas” and Pam Martin-Lawrence’s “Mistletoe's For Kissing Under.” And later today, don't miss the conclusion of HN Roberts' “A Sweet Collision.”
So, grab a mug of hot cocoa, curl up on the couch in front of the Christmas tree, and enjoy a bit of holiday romance each day… and let's keep the momentum going into the New Year…
Think Happy Thoughts,
Gail Lynn 🥰
