3. (6) Oblivious by Gary Cadwallader (6/15/07)
4. (2) Heaven by the Highwayside by Mike Amato (3/15/07)

6. (7) One Purple Finch by Kathy Fish (6/15/07)

Stats for Issue 17
Here are the stats for issue seventeen:
Issue Seventeen (live from 6/15/07-9/14/07)

6/15-6/30: 42659 page views
7/1-7/31: 75894 page views
8/1-8/31: 56439 page views
9/1-9/14: 20169 page views
Total Issue 17: 195161 page views

Bleah. We dropped back below 200,000 page views for the quarter, and fell off by 9.67%. This appears to be a summer trend. Last summer's issue saw a 17% drop in page views, and the fall issue then jumped by over 20%. Hopefully, we'll see a similar jump for the issue just published.
