I'm going old school. I'm starting an email newsletter. Not because I necessarily think I'm the most interesting person and you totally want to know everything I'm doing, but because I want to keep in touch outside of Facebook and other social media.
Especially for my family and friends!!
I basically quit Facebook a while back, and I've missed the interactions. I think Facebook is pretty bad (maybe even evil?) and I can't bring myself to engage anymore... For a variety of reasons, most importantly mental health.
I'm hoping this newsletter will be a way to keep in touch in both directions. I'll tell you what's new with me, and maybe you can email me back and tell me what's new with you!
If nobody is into it, I'll stop it. But I'm going to give it a shot. It will be totally opt-in - I won't sign anybody up without consent!
What to expect
Expect maybe a few emails per month. In the emails I'll tell you about blog posts, some of my recent projects, music I've released, videos I've done, some cool things I've found (links etc.), and other things that I used to post on social media.
This is not a marketing newsletter! I'm not trying to sell you anything. No sponsored posts or whatever. I just want to tell you what's up with me, in email form.
I promise...
- Not to share your data with anybody
- Not to sign you up without your consent
- Not to send you ads or try to get you to buy stuff
- To make it easy to unsubscribe if you want to
- To do my best to keep your info out of the hands of Google, Facebook, and other surveillance capitalist entities
