Holy hell! 3,000 subscribers! I know I keep saying this but I was maybe hoping to reach possibly 1000 by this coming December. It’s been 7 months since I wrote my first article for this newsletter and I appear to be way ahead of schedule.
After having my audience wiped out repeatedly by Facebook so they could dedicate their top articles to fascists and Nazis, it is immensely gratifying to know people are reading my ranty articles again.
I did a little back-of-the-envelope math a week ago and I appear to have banged out over a quarter of a million words since January for you, my beloved audience. That’s 2-3 full-length novels! And now I’ve got a delightful little podcast going with a small but growing audience so, yeah, I am quite thrilled there are 3000 of you out there reading and listening.
None of this happens without you and your support. I put a lot of time and effort into bringing this newsletter to you and I am happy to do it. It’s necessary in these difficult times when we are facing the end of American democracy at the hands of truly evil people. This is why The Opinionated Ogre is free.
Buuuuut if you can see your way to just a little more support, I would be extremely grateful. I don’t need wheelbarrows of money but for just $5 a month or $50 a year, I can keep this newsletter going until the Republican Party is dead and buried.
If you are already a paying subscriber, I cannot thank you enough. Your support is everything.
If you’re not a paying subscriber yet, that’s OK. I believe in you! ;)
Thank you for the last 6 months. It’s more than I dared to dream. Now let’s kick Trump and his fascist shithole of a party in the teeth and see what the next 6 months bring!
All the best,
The Opinionated Ogre
What you write resonates so much with those of us who subscribe and your pithy clapbacks to trolls are icing on the cake. Love hearing about your fam as well. Carry on.
Congratulations!
