Linda's Soapbox
Editorial by Editor, Linda Johnson
The Fleet NEEDS Your
Input!!
OK
all you readers....why aren't you writing to us? I know you probably think
writing to Internet sites or ezines doesn't get you anywhere. Well, I'm
here to tell you that is NOT the case with ABC!
As
I edited our articles this month, I repeatedly saw requests from the Fleet,
begging you for your input. Heck, Chad Welch even offered to PAY YOU FOR
IT (check it out!) What more do we have to do
to hear from you?
The
subscribership of this newsletter/ezine continues to grow rapidly, so I KNOW you
are reading it. I am on my knees now groveling and pleading with
you to PLEASE WRITE TO US AND TELL US WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW. (And me
groveling ain't a pretty picture, I assure you.)
There
MUST be something you would like to know more about and can't find the
info. Computer terms? Let me know and Cap'n Patt will be more than
happy to tell you like it is. Questions on any version of Windows or
Microsoft Office? We got that covered, for sure. Just write to me
and I will pass your questions onto the Fleet so they can base their articles on
the content YOU want. Hardware? The Registry? DOS? The Internet?
Outlook Express? Web Design? Viruses? Security? Software programs? It's ALL covered here and you
MUST have at least one suggestion for an article?
And,
if you don't have ANY questions or don't want to learn ANY more (is this
possible??), at least send me an email and tell me how you feel about what the
Fleet is doing for you for FREE so far. These people are VERY busy and
take the time to do this for you. Please let them know you appreciate
this. And, if they have a website, please visit it at least once and let
them know you found it because of ABC.
Yes,
this newsletter is completely FREE. And, yes, I will continue to scour the
Internet searching for the best, most knowledgeable writers I can find. (And I
think I have done a VERY good job at this so far. These writers are truly
amazing, in my opinion.)
You
all have seen websites and newsletters come and go. Why? Becuz, for
some reason (and it's not always financial), the writers begin to wonder if it's
really worth their efforts. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let us know how we are
doing and how we can better serve your needs!
OK....my
knees are getting sore now, so I will cease the groveling. Write to me
RIGHT NOW before I have to have knee replacements.
Remember
that this is YOUR newsletter. If the content is not what you want, then
it's no fault but your
own.
Dang.
I can be harsh sometimes, eh?
A lot of the Fleet members include their email address in their articles or
their bio. Write to them directly and tell them what you want or write to
me at linda@personal-computer-tutor.com and I will pass it on to them.
