Happy New Year! I’m excited to be back from vacation and posting again this week. 2013 will be another terrific year for noir. Thank you all for your support and encouragement– I’m truly grateful.
WordPress.com prepared a 2012 annual report for my blog. Check it out:
Here’s an excerpt:
About 55,000 tourists visit Liechtenstein every year. This blog was viewed about 170,000 times in 2012. If it were Liechtenstein, it would take about 3 years for that many people to see it. Your blog had more visits than a small country in Europe!
