The Most-Read Posts of “…On Anything Really” From 2015
It is that time of year—and that means time to share the “… on Anything, Really” 10 most-read posts of 2015.
Interestingly, it was a year of ‘clusters’, with the top two posts both falling in February, albeit at different ends of the month, with another in early March. Early April sees two well-read posts very close together, with another two in reasonable proximity in July, but the end of year is not neglected, with two of our 10 in November and December respectively.
Now let’s check out the posts themselves!
The 10 Most-Read Posts of “…On Anything Really”, 2015:
1. February 26 — Another Sneak Preview For “Daughter Of Blood, The Wall Of Night Book Three”
2. February 23 — Some Not Quite So Good News For “Daughter Of Blood, The Wall Of Night Book Three”
3. December 21 — An Avid Reader Special: Paul Weimer’s Top 5 Reads Of 2015
4. 4 April — Another Wee Snippet From Daughter Of Blood, The Wall Of Night Book Three
5. 13 November — “The Matter Of Britain”: Arthurian Fantasy
6. 1 April — Just When We Thought It Was Over: Sir Peter Jackson To Make Tom Bombadil?
7. 23 July — Writing Epic Heroines
8. 14 July — The Tuesday Poem: “at night my dead mother appears wanting soup” by Frankie McMillan
9. 15 June — Event Fun: We Celebrate Our (Christchurch) Sir Julius Vogel Award Finalists & Winners
10. 5 March — Pure Endurance
Overall, it’s nice to see a spread of interest across the year.
As with 2014, it’s very gratifying to see 3 of the 4 top slots, and 5 overall (see “Pure Endurance”) occupied by posts on Daughter Of Blood. “Writing Epic Heroines” on 23 July, and “The Matter Of Britain” on 13 November, confirm reader interest in related matters to do with epic and legendary fantasy — and reading, as Paul Weimer’s post on his “Top 5 Reads of 2015” also attests.
I am very pleased to see poetry re-enter the most-read list this year, with Frankie McMillan’s “at night my dead mother appears wanting soup” — and also to see that you like having fun, both 1 April fun (see 6, “Just When We Thought It Was Over…”) and also event fun, with my report (see 9) on our very successful celebration of Christchurch’s 2015 Sir Julius Vogel Award finalist and winners.
Most of all, though, I am deeply appreciative of your continued following and support for the blog. I hope that together we can keep the flag for writing and reading, storytelling and poetry, fun and good fellowship, flying through 2016.
