Top Ten Page Views for November 2008
Sarah Hilary retains her top spot, and Almond almost falls out of the top ten altogether. Interesting to see two from March '07 jump back onto the list.

1. (1) Two Minute Silence by Sarah Hilary (10/2/08)
2. (3) The Folk Singer Dreams of Time Machines by Matt Bell (6/15/08)
3. (4) Innocence, Briefly by Jenny Arnold (10/2/08)
4. (NR) Ten Very Short Stories by John Leary (3/15/07)
5. (5) How Anything Got Done by Paul Elwork (10/2/08)
6. (8) Tenderoni by Kathy Fish (10/2/08)
7. (NR) The Color of Moths by Holly Selph (3/15/07)
8. (6) Asian Girl by W.P. Kinsella (10/2/08)
9. (7) Tapioca O's by Natalie DeClerck (10/2/08)
10. (2) Pornography by Steve Almond (6/15/05)

Last month, I wondered whether the monthly page views would stay above 100,000 in months without new issues. Sure enough! 101,408. Woo!

Top Ten Page Views for April

Almond is still #1, but he was seriously challenged last month by Mike Amato, whose story had only 75 less page views than Steve's. Since I'm late posting this time around, I took a little time to delve a little more deeply. 54 stories last month had 100 or more page views. Pretty cool. Also, after the top ten page views of stories, I'm including the top ten page views for interviews.

1. (1) Pornography by Steve Almond (6/15/05)
2. (5) Heaven by the Highwayside by Mike Amato (3/15/07)
3. (NR) 8x10 by Elizabeth Ellen (12/15/06)
4. (2) Five Fat Men in a Hot Tub by Jeff Landon (9/15/05)
5. (6) Ten Very Short Stories by John Leary (3/15/07)
6. (4) This Is What You Left Behind by Tod Goldberg (3/15/07)
7. (8) There Swells and Jets a Heart by Rusty Barnes (3/15/07)
8. (7) Miss Hempstead's Brother by Myfanwy Collins (3/15/07)

Top Ten Page Views for March

Almond's at the top, as usual, although his page views dipped below a thousand for the first time in ages. I wouldn't be too surprised to see his usual place usurped in the months to come. Except for the top three, all of the top ten are stories published in the middle of last month.

1. (1) Pornography by Steve Almond (6/15/05)
2. (3) Five Fat Men in a Hot Tub by Jeff Landon (9/15/05)
3. (2) A Deep Desire for Blue by Alexandra Fox (6/15/05)
4. (NR) This Is What You Left Behind by Tod Goldberg (3/15/07)
5. (NR) Heaven by the Highwayside by Mike Amato (3/15/07)
6. (NR) Ten Very Short Stories by John Leary (3/15/07)
7. (NR) Miss Hempstead's Brother by Myfanwy Collins (3/15/07)
8. (NR) There Swells and Jets a Heart by Rusty Barnes (3/15/07)
9. (NR) The Color of Moths by Holly Selph (3/15/07)
10. (NR) Seven in the Morning by Max Ruback (3/15/07)
