How is it going?
For me:
Having no community at all, having not a single emailaddress, I'm not yet in the position to start a newsletter, BUT I'm trying to get a grip of posting on a blog regularly.
Jake recommended to read loud all of my blog entries and put them as videos on youtube, to increase the possibility for people to stumble over it, and that's GREAT advice, but at the same time GREAT hindrance, as it means for me:
Not only learning how to handle a blog website and having the discipline to write a new entry at least weekly (and doing art for them as well) ... I also have to learn about Youtube and how to read alound "beautifully", so it's nice to listen to my voice ... O_o;
And THEN I thought: Hey, I could also add a newsletter in the way that I tell people when a new entry is online. So ... maybe I will do that as well.
But everything I will do I will do in my native language, German, so it won't be any help for not German speaking people.
