Mailing list!

Hey, thanks to my brother Mike, there's now a mailing list option at my website, and I'm planning to do an occasional newsletter, so if you'd like to get one, go here to give me your email address. Even if you think I already have it!

I've added a bunch of quotes about my earlier work, especially Martha Moody, a book that has a particularly tender place in my heart. And, soon, if I can figure out a good safe way to get a digital version of it, we hope to have up a beautiful picture of me that my older brother, Don, who is an artist and was doing some charcoal drawings of me at the time, took in his studio when I was in my early twenties. And maybe even a picture from the recent Oakland reading, when my friend Lynne has time to send it.

Technology. Who knew?

Iris Photo can digitize it, they have very good equipment and will, if you are nervous about your photo, let you more or less stand over the process and wait and take it right back, because they're cool like that.

Regarding your mailing list - what service or tool are you using for that? I am wanting to switch.

Oh, hey, thanks, good to know! I am nervous about my photo -- it's a polaroid, so no negative.

I use the website tools that are a service of The Author's Guild (http://www.authorsguild.net/), but they require that you join the Guild -- need a published book -- and sign up for the service.
