System glitch for subscribers

~ This already happened. You can’t change it, but you can visit if you clean up after yourself.~

Hey everyone,

If you received an email saying you had your subscription canceled, have no fear. You are still on the list. I’ve only been using this platform (Substack) for a little while, and it had originally been set up to allow readers to sign up for a paid subscription if they were needing somewhere to put their couch money. Big high five to the few of you who bought me a coffee every month.

It sounded cool at the time, but I’m not writing enough to justify it charging anyone. That’s not what this writing project is about. I found myself just giving every new subscriber a free lifetime subscription if they chose the free option.

I’d rather have people subscribe because they want to know when a new post goes live, and I don’t need the pressure of “delivering paid content.”

Being a “content producer” seems like an empty reason to get up in the morning.

Sorry for the extra email. Talk to you soon.

You’ve earned the right to be satisfied. That is all. All content © 2025 Courtney Stubbert.
