Goodbye Substack. Hello Convertkit.

Thanks for being a subscriber to my substack! 

Tl;dr: I’m moving away from Substack and to ConvertKit for my email newsletter. No action is needed from you. You’ll get emails from another provider (still for free.)

If this doesn’t matter to you, no need to read further! 

If this matters to you (or you’re curious), this is what’s going on:

Substack has been great to me. But the platform best suits topical newsletter-type folks. My journey in creating is strong in another direction: towards more “evergreen style” content that isn’t tied to current events or commentary.

Secondly, I’ve historically written and shared long-form content on Twitter. I love teaching and, frankly, it’s a rewarding exercise for me. 

(In another life or if it paid better, I would have been a college professor! I like teaching that much.)

Twitter has taken me a long way but because of the changes taking place at Twitter and the slow death of Twitter-thread-supremacy, I need another vehicle for long-form content. That’s my newsletter. I’ll still also sometimes share announcements and deals that I like.

To provide the best possible experience for everyone I’m going to switch my newsletter from substack to ConvertKit.

There’s no action required on your part. I just wanted to inform you as you will now receive my newsletter from a different email address (michael@girdley.com) and from another set of email servers.

Thanks for all your support!

Michael
