Hi there. I know you. At some point in time you and I have interacted, either online, or more likely in real life. Perhaps we worked together, or met at a conference or workshop. Or we might have only corresponded online.
Which is how you got on this list. You gave me your e-mail address and at the time I didn't always remember to ask if you wanted to receive my mailings.
Up until now, I've infrequently shared information about my poetry projects and reading/speaking engagement with this list. Most of the fiction I've published has been erotica under a pseudonym.
But starting this year, I will be publishing speculative fiction under my name. And, this list will be used to let folks know when/where that fiction is available.
You may or may not read speculative fiction (which is the all encompassing term for fantasy, science fiction, paranormal, horror, etc.). You may be willing to try something you've never read because you personally know the author. Or you may prefer not to receive these notices.
So, you have choices. Using the links in the email you received 1) you can click on "modify" your preferences to choose which of my emails you wish to get: just event related, just workshop related, or information about new fiction and poetry; (If you don't see an option you think you might want, or are not sure which list you want to be on, send me an email.) or 2) you can choose to "leave" this mailing list and you'll never receive any email from the list again; or 3) you can do nothing and continue to receive my newsletters which I expect to send out no more than once a month (at most). Regardless of your choice, I never share my mailing list information with anyone.
If someone forwarded you this email, please do not click on the links -- you'll change that person's settings. You can sign up for my
mailing list yourself by checking the box and giving me your email address.
