The final month of the year was one of the slowest of the year. It finished off with a whimper, probably because people were busy and the holidays were starting. The month ended with 1,160 followers, which was an increase of 30.

Please check out the following posts. They didn’t get as much love as they should have. They’re good!
Reviews
Sorry, nothing. I do have three to come, and I’d like to get them done within the next two weeks.
Social Media
On Twitter, I have 3,058 followers, which is an increase of 88. I follow 2,981, which is up by 77. I finished with 8053 tweets, with 146 coming in December.
On YouTube, I uploaded 1 video in December. I have 42 subscribers, which is unchanged from last month. The month ended with 8,935 views, which is an increase of 132. The 28 videos I have planned will take some time to get completely done. There’s a lot of editing to do, and I hope to get started on those in January.
Looking Ahead to January
It’s a big month. I have a lot to do. I’ve already talked a bit about my plans for January, but this is what you can expect.
Three book reviews should be coming. I may actually finish another book, so four could be possible.
Posts on worldbuilding, as well as Quick Facts will be coming. I’m committing to once a week posts for both.
And now that 2016 is upon us, I feel a lot more motivated to get more things done. So, look for some big things this month!
