FAQ: What are the most visited pages on this website and how many visits do they get?
Several years ago, I wrote an article on how to write different types of magic uses, or rather how I personally write various types of magic users within the context of my Quaraun books. Today that page is one of my top ten most visited articles. It gets 50 to 500 views/reads/hits/visits per day depending on the time of the years and has had over 200k visits total since it was published.
Amphibious Aliens: Debunking The Atwater Family's Alien Abduction Hoax with more then 30MILLION reads since 2007 and The GoldenEagle: Debunking Stephen King's World's Most Haunted Car Hoax with over tenMILLION reads since 2007 still rank as the two most visited articles on my website, but, neither of those are writing related.
Writing Medieval Servants is my most visited writing related article with over 7MILLION reads.
This website was started in 1996 and has 1 to 3 new articles (all written by me, I am the only writer on this site) published almost daily. In 2017 we crossed ten thousand articles published. As of 2023, EACH article gets MINIMUM 10 to 70 reads PER DAY, with the high traffic articles getting 500+ reads per day.
And since December 2019, my website now gets three hundred thousand to 7 million reads per month - well over ONE HUNDRED MILLION PAGE READS PER YEAR, making it not only the single most trafficked site in the State of Maine, but also one of the most visited websites in ALL OF NEW ENGLAND!
{{{HUGS}}} Thank you to all my readers for making this possible!

I run a writing/author focused YouTube Channel. I record my NaNoWriMo planning and writing sessions, did over 100 NaNoWriMo videos in 2016, will likely do as many this year.
It features daily vlogs, that give you an in depth look into the everyday life of an author, and what it is like dealing with fans, haters, critics, publishing... all recorded live (for example - if I'm talking about dealing with fans interrupting my life - it's because I was vlogging at WalMart and you just saw a fan glomp me on camera. I cut nothing out... not even the shoot out in my driveway during last's NaNoWriMo. The camera is running 24/7 and the vlogs are quite literally - an author's life recorded. It's NOT me doing typical "how to write tips" videos. It's the everyday life an an author. If it happens in my life, you see it live. The videos are also very long, many are 1 to 4 hours, because it's my day uncut.. Quite a bit different from typical authortube channels.)
I do daily writing prompts on my YouTube Channel, I also read how-to-write books, do various #authortube, #writetube, and #booktube videos, in addition to random non-writing related gaming videos: https://www.youtube.com/user/EelKat
My author home page is here: https://www.eelkat.com There are over 9,700 articles on writing, world building, character creations, etc. Including my 13 Step Method To Writing, and this is also where you can find all the articles I've written specifically for NaNoWrimo since 2004. The site has been online since 1997, on it's current url since 2013, and new articles are published daily.
Many of my books have free sample chapters that can be read online, the index of those can be found here: https://www.eelkat.com/quaraun-free-to-read-online.html There are more then 100 sample chapters (from a few dozen novels) currently available and I'm constantly adding more every month.
- Discussions: Tell us what's on your mind.
I have no plot for this novel. Only a basic idea suggested by some of my fans on a FaceBook group. Throughout the series, Unicorn is constantly talking about how years ago he was Santa's chef and was the one who built the gingerbread houses that make up Santa's village. Readers started asking if Santa was real in Quaraun's universe or if Unicorn was just nuts and if Santa was real, if I would write a special Christmas edition novel for the series, where Quaraun meets Old saint Nick.
So, that's where the idea for this came from.
I'm spending October researching Santa myths from around the world, and trying to figure out how to take this idea and turn it into a plot.
I've never done a holiday special for the Quaraun series before, so this is a different slant from how I usually write the novels in the series. I'm not sure yet what is going
to happen once Quaraun get's to Santa's village.
