Three Years Blogging Results

It’s Blogiversary time again! Three years I’ve been posting on this blog and have had the pleasure of connecting with so many wonderful people.

 

So let’s take a speedy look at the past year…

2016 has been a two-sided coin for me, with some stress and trouble in my personal life but also some great things which kept the year from being a total flop.

• We sold our house of 30 years and moved south to North Carolina.
• We had to say goodbye to our beloved Aggie Girl. 
• I am 98% done with my second romance novel, tentatively called 2 Cats, a Bodyguard & an Heiress. 

Some stats for the past year:

• Over 10,000 views
• Over 7,000 visitors
• Over 130 comments

Most of my views come from these countries:

• United States
• The Philippines
• Canada
• United Kingdom

Some of my most popular posts:

• 6 Feng Shui Tips to Make Your Wedding Lucky
• Weekly Photo Challenge: My Happy Place
• Chinese Wedding Tea Ceremony
• Clutter, Where Did It All Come From?

Enjoying introducing people to my first book:

Hong Kong Treasure – A deadly Philippines typhoon stole her memory. Now can a handsome Chinese stranger save her from the danger she has forgotten?

 

I’ve also began posting on my Romance website and my Author website. Be sure to check them out for more great content.

So, here’s to three great years of blogging with a big Thank You to all my followers, friends and visitors!

Besides my regular posts every 2nd & 4th Tuesday, I began my Friday Fun Posts. Each Friday I post a funny video, a photo asking for a caption or a humorous joke or photo to get you through to the weekend.

To see a sample of my Friday Fun Posts, click here to read last Friday’s post.

I’ve also begun frequently posting the Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge. Each week the WordPress Daily Post issues a photo challenge theme.

…And here’s to another year of blogging!

 

Welcome to My Blogiversary Party!

It’s time to celebrate!

I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since I started this blog. Time really does go quickly.

First, I want to thank everyone who has liked, commented and followed my blog. I have enjoyed interacting with you and look forward to many more years!

Now to the party:

Come on over and make yourself at home. The day is warm and breezy here on the beach. The pink chair is mine, though 🙂

Sample all the food, especially the fruit and desert buffets.

For entertainment we will have:

* A Feng Shui consultant to help balance your life energies to bring you luck and prosperity.

* Jackie Chan & Jet Li may stop by to give a martial arts demonstration.

* A surfer hunk will give surfing lessons for anyone brave enough to tackle the waves.

* And something for my male friends, a bikini model will be available for photos.

Fun for all!

But the highlight of the party will be when one lucky person wins a signed copy of my new book – Hong Kong Treasure (released on Chinese New Year, Thursday, February 19, 2015).

To be eligible for this grand prize all you have to do is Like my Facebook Page and Share this post. The contest will end Wednesday, December 31, 2014 and the winner will be randomly picked from eligible contestants and announced on this blog on Tuesday, January 6, 2015.

Hong Kong Treasure is a romance with a little mystery and action thrown in for good measure.
