What’s the saying . . . better late than never?
Yeah, that would be me. After all my excitement about reaching 100 subscribers for my new free newsletter in May 2015, I followed it up immediately with !!! A bunch of nothin’.
My sad story is that my work website was hacked so, while doing my usual freelance work gigs and starting a new one, I had to deal with that whole mess. Aye yie yie. However, I have a fabulous web host and all is right with the world again – with even more precautions in place.
So then what happened?
Well, today I finally had time to finish the Welcome to the Newsletter e-mail for all the lovely subscribers AND figure out how to send it … uh, kinda’ backdated … to everyone who signed up. Feels so good to have that signed, sealed, and delivered.
Annnnd what’s next?
I’m nervous, that’s what. What do I send out first? What if I have typos? What if y’all don’t like it? Just being honest – it’s nerve-wracking for a non-pro like me.
Then God spoke to me . . .
Well, sorta’. I get a daily e-mail and this is what today’s said:
On this day of your life,
Erika, I believe God wants you to know……that the next step is the most important step. Take it
now. Do not wait.Life is not going to come down there and sprinkle
glitter dust on your shoulders to let you know that you
are Good…or that you are walking the Right Path…or
that you are making the Best Decision.Take the next step. Right now. Stop waiting for a “sign”
from the “gods.” Your sign is your intuition, wrapped
in your desire.Hesitation is not a stopping place on the road to heaven.
And since I always listen to God when he takes the time to speak to me, BLADOW! Another newsletter will go out soon. I have a cool coupon code lined up for you on a brand new product by someone you lurve. It won’t be posted on the blog so – if you want it – you gotta’ get the newsletter, chick!
PS: I have to say I *am* disappointed there will be no glitter dust sprinkles. Shoot. I was looking forward to those.
Where, oh, where is that sign-up form?!?!
Oh, HELLO.
Talk to ya’ soon.

Love ur website and info, but just so you know, god is fake and your need to proselytize on your blog about it has lost me as a reader and potential customer.
ps – I never feel the need to say stuff like that unless merchants feel the need to proselytize to me in the marketplace. Unprovable assertions in public spaces lead to aggressions and arguments. That’s why they shouldn’t be part of the marketplace.
Hi marenj & thank you for the honest comments. I think you’ve misunderstood my intent but I 100% respect your opinion. Wishing you all the best.
