- I have read at least 60 books (other than my own) so far this year.
- This is the first year ever that I have actually kept a record.
- I am sure I have missed some too, but more than a book a week is not too bad, considering that some of those books were very large tomes...
- I expect I will read another four or so before years end.
- I suspect that I read less then I used to because I read so much on the internet these days.
- In the past 4 months I have had people (or bots??) from 107 different countries visit this blog.
- 38% of those visitors were from either Australia or USA, who were almost equal in number.
- Malaysia and UK, also almost equal in number, provided another 22% of visitors.
- i.e. Australia, USA, Malaysia and UK made up 60% of my visitors.
- A few of the most surprising places that registered a hit: Bhutan, Mali, Maldives, Virgin Islands... *Glenda waves*
- I have visited Europe, USA and Australia this year. Crickey. No wonder my bank account looks so sick.
About Me
- Glenda Larke
- Malaysia
- My life has been described by one of my editors as “impossibly exotic” – although really it is not my life, but me, that’s the exotic. I’m the uprooted plant, the exotic who doesn’t belong, always living in someone else’s backyard...

Author of The Isles of Glory trilogy (The Aware, Gilfeather, The Tainted); The Mirage Makers trilogy (Heart of the Mirage, The Shadow of Tyr, Song of the Shiver Barrens) and, writing as Glenda Noramly, a stand-alone book Havenstar.

I'm hurt, you didn't mention Canada *g*, I guess you don't get too many of us from here. I originated in the UK so maybe I count under that section.
I haven't a clue how many books I have read this year, maybe I should try keeping a count next year, would be interesting. It is true, one reads a lot on the net so less on paper.
