Still Saying "Hi" to a Staggering Number of New Subscribers with a Few MORE Flashbacks
Previously on That Thing They Did…
“I suddenly picked up a major influx of new subscribers between Tuesday and today, and I can only attribute this to my decision to slip the link to this newsletter into the comments section of my Random Roles with John Astin. I regret nothing. Whether I ever do another RR interview or not, I’ll still be trying to add more content to this newsletter, so I saw no reason to not indulge in a bit of self-promotion, and given how well it worked out, I’m damned glad I did…just as I’m damned glad to have you new subscribers here!
“I’ve been doing this solo endeavor of mine for over a year now, and it’s been extremely pleasing to see how many folks have found my work, shared it, and even thrown their hard-earned money behind my efforts. That said, I know that if you’re at all like me, even those of you who’ve been onboard for awhile now might still get an email about a new article, think to yourself, “I’ll need to check that out this evening when I’m not in the middle of something,” and then promptly forget about it altogether. As such, you might also appreciate the opportunity for a quick best-of piece, one that highlights some of my favorite pieces since I’ve started this thing…”
…and then I realized just how much I’ve done since starting this thing, it became clear to me that I was going to have to do a second best-of piece that brings us from June 2021 up to the present, and…here we are!
Please enjoy these further flashbacks to past pieces, and don’t be afraid to share the links to new discoveries on social media. When you’re a one-man operation, it’s word of mouth that makes all the difference!
