When I started this Substack, I had some things behind a paywall for a bit. I scrapped it before too long, because the idea that people want to give me money for things I write/record felt weird and unnatural. I put too much pressure on myself as a result, and I felt like just cutting off that option from people was the move to make.
Basically, something is wrong with my brain.
So, effective 7/26/23, I’ll be resuming billing. Substack won’t allow me to charge less than $5/month or $30/year, so that’s where we’ll be. Because that still feels too high, I have a 40% off discount code that you can use.
What will be behind the paywall?
That’s the trick, right? The answer is unclear, mainly because committing to anything on a regular basis will simply cause me to get overwhelmed and stop billing again. I do have some things I’m thinking about, though.
The occasional solo podcast may end up there. I may also do some video hangout sessions during the season that will be behind the paywall. Honestly, the entire idea at the moment is just to allow people who want the option to give me some money the opportunity to do that. It still feels weird, but I’m trying to get better about it.
I’m also looking at a bit of a rebranding at some point. Still trying to work out the details on that.
Thanks for your time, and also for your support over the last year or so in this space. We’ve got a pretty fun post on the way teams around the league used the Pony Package in 2022 that should be making its way here in the next couple of week, and I’m hyped for everyone to see that.
You’re the best. Here’s a song that I am forever addicted to.
