 Hey folks, welcome to the Ginger Nuts of Horror's newsletter, some of you may remember many many moons ago, our long and forgotten newsletter. Sadly life got in the way, combined with, what was in those days, a really annoying and clunky way of creating the newsletter. It will come as no surprise to those that know me, that I despise clunky and annoying things, it got so frustrating to create a newsletter, that I ditched the whole idea. Some of you may be wondering why I have resurrected our newsletter, and to be honest, there is a small part of my brain wondering the same thing, it's not like I am stretched to the limit to keep up with the content on the website, it's 4am of my seventh day of my February holiday and that's seven days in a row I have been getting up at 2am to catch up with the admin side of the site. However, the new newsletter function of Twitter, looks like it is going to be easy to use, with the minimum amount of effort to add content. The biggest hurdle is actually deciding on what content to add to the newsletter. I don't have time to create unique content, and other than adding in the articles posted during the week, just in case some of you may have missed any of them, I really wasn't sure what to add to the newsletter. And then it struck me, go back to the roots of why this website was set up, to promote horror, there is a huge wealth of great content out there, and while there may be a lot of cross over between the readership of review websites, and the authors that we all cover, there is still a lot of gaps in the market. That's when I decided on using this newsletter and our reach on social media and our rather nice google ranking to help drive traffic and potential readers to as many other sites out there as possible. This is where some of you come in, if you have anything that you would like us to add to our newsletter, a review, article, interview, or if you are an author or filmmaker, news about your latest project, or even news about your own newsletter then drop us a line. Basically if you have something to do with horror, and you want us to share it send it our way. If you send an email with the heading "GNoH Newsletter" to this email address We will strive to add to that week's newsletter, obviously we can't space limiations will determine just how much we can add to each newsletter, but we aim to give as much space as possible to all of you. All I ask is if possible could you make it as simple as possible for me to add your item to the newsletter y trying to follow these guidelines If you could include
The RSS feed is a nice new touch which wasn't available the last time I tried to do a newsletter and it now allows me to just click on each individual article to add it to the newsletter.
In return all i ask from those who appear in the newsletter is that you share the link to the newsletter on your social media, when each one goes live featuring your article, I'll post one tweet and one post to Facebook when the newsletter goes live. As to when it goes live I still have to decide on this, I'm thinking Sundays, as this is the most common day of the week that I have off from work, and it is the day where there generally isn't a post going up on the site. But as with all things I'll suck it and see, and if another day seems to be more appropriate I'll move it to that day. This is a learning experience for me, and I can be a very slow learner. With some luck this newsletter can make a difference, and we can help to share all of the great work from you lovely horror folks. Comments are closed.
