Newsletter

Happily, as of my newsletter of November 2011, the system I use now enables me to include pictures. This is going to mean a whole rethink of what I do in these newsletters. Till now it's just been words and - I hope - not tooo many of those.

I've been asked, too, why I don't send newsletters more often. Am I wrong to think you'd only want messages from me that actually contained some news - especially about publications and appearances and things that don't come along every day? I can chatter to you, but if my life is anything to go by I'd think you already have access to plenty of that.

However if you do sign up to get my newsletters, you'll get an automatic email asking you to confirm that you really want them. If you don't confirm, you won't go on the list.

I'd hoped to include things in newsletters like this rainbow over Bath as seen from my Walcot Heights patio. Alas, so far I'm able only to send out words.
