Top Reads

I have not done a top reads or statistics posts before. To be honest I do not look at the statistics that much. However, for the few that do ask, I have listed the top five for the last week and month below. I have also included the ten top reads for all time to date. It is nice to see the all time list being a mix of fiction, non-fiction and poetry. Looking at it now, it is nice to also see a number of local writers making the all time top ten.

This only looks at contributors work and not at site pages, news items, editorials, covers etc. I haven’t put direct links to each story, but I have listed each issue, so you can find them there. Each monthly issue is in the archive or the links at he top of the page. Maybe you will find a lesser read piece that you like too. Anyway here are the top reads:
