A Novelist Idea: To Newsletter or Not to Newsletter... That is the Question, Do you want to be on Another Mailing List?

Sad to say, but I don't enjoy mailing lists. 

After I get what I want from a topic, I usually unsubscribe. Am I the only one who is like this? 

I am working on getting a newsletter mailing list up and running for Undawnted, but the technology seems to be unsatisfactory. I guess you get what you pay for when the service is free. I am sure that is to push people into purchasing a product/service if they feel they are the reason that the free one doesn't work. It must be me! I need to pay for a service because I am so incapable.

Or, gullible? 

Oops! Did I say the quiet part out loud? I have a habit of doing that. The truth just slips out into the atmosphere from my fingertips. In these times of reactionary politics, that turns into censorship, it is no wonder that I am in the wilderness alone. 

That's a problem. 

I mean, who I am going to outrun if I am chased by a hungry bear? I should probably invest in some climbing gear, or a jetpack. Truth be told, again, I have always wanted a jetpack.  

Okay, back to the need for a newsletter and mailing list. 

I already use my blog for this purpose. Is a blog that unsatisfactory? Do you all hate blogs but love being pestered by email? An inquiring mind wants to know. 

Seriously, let me know on my social media accounts. 

Have a great and auspicious day!
