This weekend, I spent a great deal of time talking with my friends in real life about subscribing to my Weekly Newsletter, the one I talked about in the October Goals post. So far, about 15 people are subscribed, which is awesome! However, some of my friends did not respond when I asked them, and even went on to unsubscribe from the newsletter when they received it. I was saddened by this, as the one who unsubscribed always seemed so supportive of my writing endeavors. This is just part of it, however. I imagine, as I grow and continue building a following, I will find more and more of my friends will unsubscribe or get sick of my content, but that’s okay. I have faith that I will eventually find my people and they will find me.
The newsletter, other than this one hiccup, had a pretty stellar start and opening weekend. The Battle of Johanna Valley was enjoyed by many who read it, and I am excited to continue writing new/editing old short stories for the weekly newsletter. Have you signed up for the newsletter yet? If not, you can do so at the box below, all I need is your email!
At the end of the day, we have to press on. That “we” includes you! No matter what happens, no matter who walks with us or abandons us, and no matter what happens in life, we have to keep the beacon lit. How might we do that? Well, if you are in need of inspiration, check out my article on the matter here. Keep writing that book, keep drawing those works of art, and keep pursuing the dream God has given you.
