A Thing!!

[alexisjane]

So, next weekend I'm hoping to send out my first writer's newsletter! I figure that not everyone is going to be quite as excited about it as me, BUT that's because you don't know about the swag yet!

There's going to be swag.

Or at least, I'm going to make a little something for the first twenty people to sign up to the newsletter. Or the first twenty people that want a something, and are willing to give out their postal address so I can send the something to them. I have a few sign ups but it would be nice to have twenty by next weekend.

So, if you'd like an exclusive gift that original fic related, all you have to do is pop to the website and sign up to the newsletter at the bottom of the page. I don't want to overhype the swag, so let's just say that it's adequate. Also homemade by the author.

See! How exciting is that!! - go to my website, and the sign up is at the bottom of the page - http://alexjane.info - Clickety Click!! x

You know I just subscribed right? Not because of possible presents but because YOU'RE AWESOME 😘 XX

I know it! I hope people like the thing though. I'm off away for a few days tomorrow so I shall start on them when I get back! : ) xx

I'd love to see what you're up to -- good on you writing original fiction!

I admit that most of my J2 is original fic in disguise : ) Figured there was no harm in giving it a go! xx

Hi, *straightens her badge and waves* yes, hellooooo! *is a proud subscriber of the Gospel of AJ* And although the thought of personal swag winging (hee!) it's way to me, I adore reading your posts, you have a talent for making me grin, weep, or laugh my arse off, darling. And I know I'm not the only one who feels that way. xx

I hope one day to actually figure out the blog thing and think of things even half as interesting to post there. :/

Ooo, badges. Maybe I should make badges... : ) I did a couple of test runs of the thing and they turned out okay. I just hope I can make twenty without fucking it up! : )

You can do the blog thing! I started by just writing a monthly thing about the books I've read (although I'm behind with that) as i'd seen a few other writers do that and thought it was a nice idea. I think it's good to only do as much as you feel comfortable with, and to write about stuff you feel comfortable with. I've read a couple of writers blogs that are all about their family life, some are really academic...so anything goes really. And you're totally interesting!! Write the thing!! ♥ xxx

Badges might work :D And there in lies the skill, though I have every faith in your abilities, sweetheart. *hugs*

Oooh, once a month, that might better. I advertised for an artist I know, done a ad for Wolfhaven, and one post where I blathered about self-publishing because I felt having a blog required at least one post. So I'm doing it, just a little less successfully than I do on LJ. I like the book idea. xx

I subscribed too :D

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Thank you! *squishes you* xxx

Okay - I must be blind - I can't find the link to sign up for the newsletter....sigh.

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Nah, I just wasn't very clear about it : / Sorry.

If you go to my website - www.alexjane.info - and scroll to the bottom of the page, theres a little box thing in the footer that you can sign in with.....actually thinking about it I could see if I can put the html in the post....I'll try that too : ) xx

[theatregirl7299]

I got it!!! -did it on my phone which bypassed all the blocks I have on my computer. Now am officially signed up!

[masja-17.livejournal.com]

And I know you've got my address as I got a lovely keychain fo Christmas, thank you, again! :)

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

I saw you on the list! I hope everyone doesn't think the thing is too silly. I guess I could always make people keychains instead : ) xx

[meesasometimes.livejournal.com]
