Hey, how’s it going?
Seeing interest in Besnowed has left me speechless, excited and motivated to build more. It may seem silly, but a quick tweet has a huge positive impact on my day, if not my entire week.
However, it’s been sporadic and hard to track.
From what I’ve gathered, most people seem to be reading on google docs, and I imagine some have saved a copy for their convenience. All that translates into making it harder to really know who’s reading and enjoying my story.
I was counting tweets and messages and emails and more to make any sense of who was a user for Besnowed. Even stretching the definition of the word well beyond its limits, it was a disappointing number after just three weeks.
I’ve honestly been really struggling to come up with a solution. I mentioned in my last weekly update that I would try to send out a survey, but I’d still have to find and refind the people who are allegedly reading.
A mailing list or a newsletter is a much simpler way to go about it.
At the very least, I now have a reliable way to contact anyone and everyone who wants to see more Besnowed.
Until next time.
Cheers,
John
