July 2022 newsletter letter

Monday, August 1, 2022

July 2022 Hello Friend, Sharing reflections July has been an unseasonably wet month in the part of Maui where I live.

For that I am grateful, and at the same time I sense the wet weather ending and the drier weather of summer approaching. Earlier this month I was on a Zoom call with a charity in the UK of which I am a Board member.

June 2022 newsletter letter

Friday, July 1, 2022

No sooner had I re-booted my newsletter in the month of February, encouraged by Manton Reece introducing a newsletter feature to Micro.blog, my blogging platform, then I pressed pause for March. March was a challenge for me, and when it came to putting together the final touches to that month’s newsletter, the process of sharing just felt too vulnerable a move.

First Micro.blog hosted newsletter

Monday, February 28, 2022

My first letter to accompany my first Micro.blog newsletter. Welcome to my first newsletter hosted on Micro.blog. This newsletter contains the long form writings that I made through the month of February 2022. There were ’x’ such posts. Unsure at the moment how to fold the posts so that this email is not so long, I thought that this index of the posts might make it a little easier to navigate the newsletter.
