The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 40,000 times in 2015. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 15 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

There were 465 pictures uploaded, taking up a total of 124 MB. That’s about a picture per day.

The busiest day of the year was January 19th with 409 views. The most popular post that day was Bad Boy: A Memoir by Walter Dean Myers.

In the future, you’ll also find it in the right hand corner under Personal News.

Thanks for your support in 2015! Over the next twelve months, you can look forward to daily posts except on the weekends. Those posts will range from book reviews and author interviews, to news and views posts, to snapshots and other meme posts. You can also expect the occasional “Inspired By….” feature and personal update. Join me for another year of literary adventure!
