Dear Friend & Subscriber,
This is the first time I can ever remember sitting down to
write a letter and being nervous I will not be able to
communicate my message clearly.
I
almost don't know where to begin. So following my
time-tested method, I'm just going to plunge right in and
see how it comes out.
First of all, one way my readers can be divided is, those
who are on my announcement list... and... those who are not.
All that happens when you are on my announcement list is,
you get an e-mail whenever I post a new newsletter telling
you it's up on my website. You don't have to be on this
announcement list because anybody can go to my website at
any time and see if there's anything new posted on it.
Many people may choose not to be on my announcement list
because they don't want to give up their e-mail address or
other "personal" information. My pet name for these type
people are "lurkers".
I
don't blame these individuals for being a "lurker"
especially if they don't know me. In many cases, giving up
your e-mail address... even to get access to free
information... will mean you will be subject to an endless
barrage of e-mails.
