Several weeks ago, I discovered that We Are Teachers shared my 21 Scary Halloween Short Stories For Middle School post on their Facebook page. Since I wasn't following their page (at the time), I had no idea they'd graciously shared the article until I saw a spike in my stats. In other words, I suddenly had 4,000 more visitors to my site than normal, and most of the extra people were from Facebook.
After a few days, I did a few Google searches, and discovered this:
WeAreTeachers – Poe, Robert Louis Stevenson and other… | Facebook
The post was shared via Twitter, as well:

So I just wanted to give We Are Teachers a shout out to express my appreciation for the share. Thank you!
