Yesterday I was ecstatic to discover that The Story Siren reached, what I had always assumed to be unobtainable heights..... 100,000 visitors. When I first started The Story Siren, I didn't have any expectations as far as visitors, sure I wanted to have some, but I'd always joked around that my mom would probably be the only one! (I don't even think my mom visits all that much, actually)

And then to find out that in only a little over a year, I've hit the 100k mark. It's surreal. Thank you to that one visitor that stopped by that one time, Thank you to those visitors that stop by once a week, Thank you to those visitors that stop by every day. Thank you.

I wish I could have an insane contest and give away a 100 books in 100 hours, one book an hour or something equally extravagant like that. But unfortunately I don't have the man hours or the funds... mostly the funds. I still want to celebrate however, so I'm going to be giving away a ten pack of ARCs, some already released, some to be released.
