To be precise, NCiR’ was born on May 25, so this post marks the 1 month + 1 week anniversary of the publication.

I’m a sucker for statistics, so

  • 80 poems published
  • by 28 unique authors
  • Most claps for one story: 1,800 and counting, for this gem
  • The first of our stories to be curated into the Humor category: this little ditty
  • The first of our stories to be curated into the Poetry category: this bit of noir
  • The first of our stories to be curated into two categories, Humor and San Francisco (yeah, I didn’t even know they did that): this loose rhyme
  • Total views over the past 30 days: 9,146
  • Average daily unique visitors over the past 30 days: 80
  • Forms of poetry our submissions span to date: limericks, villanelles, nonets, haikus, haibun, zuihitsu, odes, translations and all manner of rhyming and free verse.

And here is everything our Authors have submitted, and our Editors have scrutinized and published, in NCiR’ thus far …
