Tonight I decided to simplify things
1. I ended paid Substack memberships
My account is too small to support paid memberships, and the pressure to provide additional posts for paid members was too time consuming. I should never have gone in that direction.
I have issued pro rata refunds to my two paying subscribers and wish to thank them for supporting me. (I clicked the appropriate buttons — hopefully it should go through correctly.)
All my posts should now be available on the free tier, at least for the time being.
2. I closed my Patreon account
I decided it was not worth the time spent each week sharing my Substack posts on Patreon.
Thank you to my one Patreon supporter — I appreciated you.
3. I will start making Ko-fi links more prominent for those who wish to support me that way
As an experiment, I edited The AJ Chronicles: 16 February 2024 to remove the ‘Subscribe’ buttons and include this rather subtle button instead!
Well, it’s worth a try! 😆
I understand. It's a lot to keep up with. I'm getting burned out, myself.
I have not been able to figure out how to add a Ko-fi button, and it's driving me crazy!
