Outside of the daily blogging I did in November, I struggled with posting a monthly article for most of 2013. Still, this year Sockets and Lightbulbs continued to grow with 44% more views and, more importantly, a 243% increase in followers on WordPress.com and email. Thank you so much! Reading, liking, commenting and sharing and sharing my posts mean a lot and boost my motivation to keep writing, no matter how busy life gets. I hope my posts are valuable and helpful for you.
