I myself still don’t have a newsletter but haven’t wanted to. Yeah, I know. Along with staying fit at 69, painting, wanting to travel, wanting to eat well, doing a blog, grandkids, lol 😂

But, he makes a LOT of good points in previous posts about the value of having one’s own list independent of an – actually, any – online platform, no matter how big or good.

And I’d have to see if my WordPress premium level is set up to do an automated newsletter signup, and if not, what the alternatives are.

The benefits to me would be big, esp ownership of the list (I would never share it w/anyone).

Plus the benefits I could offer to my newsletter readers could be very unique 😊

Anyway, David offers tons of good info, hope you’ll take a look too!

Take care everyone, stay creative! ❤️

ps – David almost always also makes a point of saying the info is of benefit to most anyone, in any creative endeavor, not just authors 💕
