Sorry I’m late. I hope everyone who celebrates during this time had a good time with friends and family.

Do you create lists such as top books read in 2016; number of books read; numbers of books sold; number of books written? I think we all tend to keep stats which gives us a sense of accomplishments.

Here are a few of my stats for 2016.

• I’ve read 247 books
• I’ve been to 3 reader/fan conventions (Left Coast Crime, Malice and Bouchercon)
• I’ve read books by four authors I met at reader/fan convention (Alexandra Sokoloff, Karin Salvalaggio, Susan Elia MacNeal, Liz Milliron)
• I had 94 authors, for the first-time, appear on my blog

What stats do you have?
