You might have noticed Emma Louise Backe was both prolific and popular in 2014! Congrats and thanks to her for sharing such great pieces with the TGA community!

Had the list included pieces published before 2014, two older publications would have been in the 2014 TGA top 10:

1. The Daily Prompt: Geek was the 5th most popular post on TGA in 2014. This strickes me as interesting, as I wrote it in answer to a writing prompt by the Daily Post team in 2012. For some reason, its been driving a lot of traffic since then.
2. What I wish I could unlearn from Star Trek TNG / 1: Women are equal to men. In theory. This piece I wrote in 2013 was the 6th most popular post in 2014. 

We published nearly a 100 posts on TGA in 2014, so there is a lot more great content in our archives! Make sure to check them out!
