I Have a Touch of NEWSLETTER POISONING
It’s insidious.
This is how my disease progressed.
I have tried to maintain one for my real estate business forever. Sporadically. Then I started my writing. I became convinced I needed one for that as well.
I tried them all.
I used Mail Chimp for a long time. And Mailer-Lite. Then Revue and Substack came along. I tried them all. Revue crashed pretty quickly. I had visions of making some money, too.
I had soon had several websites and about 4 Substacks. Substacks didn’t offer some tag features I wanted for a mailing list, so I added a Convert Kit. I try to write every day, so I can start on one platform and then share the story with another, but as slow as I have become at typing, I run out of day almost every day.
The decision.
So I have made the decision to concentrate my stories on Medium at one of my own publications, and feed the others from that one. Medium does not have a great newsletter feature, but I am finding some hacks to help it. And I will always keep a master Convert Kit list in addition.
I am giving a huge sigh of relief just thinking how much easier this will be.

So if you are not a the subscriber type, just come on over to my pub and follow it. Make sure your Medium settings say email notifications OK.
I feel better already.
