Writing For Fun

For those who didn't know, I've been away from home since Sunday. Went hiking with Jonathan and Melody on Monday (Mt Battie. And yes, I'll be writing up that hike soon). Then yesterday I was up in Kingfield working on Math Problems with Brian. I have all my problems written and proofread. Now I just need to organize them and send them off to Maryland! :)

Anyway, the post is titled "Writing For Fun", and writing math problems isn't exactly fun - not when you have a deadline to write 99 of them, and they have to have quite a few challenging ones!

But in case you've missed it, there is a new website that's all about writing for fun: Fifteen Minutes Of Fiction

Here are a couple interesting statistics about the site...

The most popular author on the site at the moment is: Rabbit Stu Yeah, that's right...the fictional alias I created on the site while testing some features, and which I use to write totally bizarre and nonsensical poetry, is the most read author so far. I'm not sure what it says that of the four most popular pages on the site, three of them are by the fictional poet Rabbit Stu. :P

Here is the most popular piece of writing on the site: Entranced By Beauty.

It is interesting to see that, even though the site is only a week old, it's already getting a fair amount of traffic. It doesn't have a lot of visitors yet, but it seems that the visitors stick around for quite awhile, reading different things on the site. There's already been over 1000 page views on the writing...not including the times that authors viewed their own writing.
