HOUSEKEEPING
We've swapped over to a new newsletter back end. Let us know if anything is weird!
We're up to 120 subscribers here which seems really amazing. We've got a little something going on over at the texty socials (Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads) and fair amount of followers on Facebook. Instagram seems to be where it's popping the most and we're getting the interaction. It's neat trying to grow all of this. Say HI wherever you are :)
We're always looking for anyone who wants to get involved! There's no way of "how we do it" yet, we're making this up as we go along - so to say that we're flexible and want to find a way to make it work. We've talked to a few folks, hopefully you'll see some other voices on here soon enough. Interested?!? Drop us a line!
Want to help us find our people? Forward this newsletter or share out one of our posts!
Until next time...
