The Future of the 'Phantoms & Monsters' Daily Email Newsletter - UPDATED


Hey folks, I would like your thoughts on the use of a paid membership platform for 'Phantoms & Monsters' newsletter. If I eventually decide to implement a plan, what would be a reasonable fee?

That being stated, I need to figure how much advertising and donation revenue will be lost in the process. I have always said that the newsletter would be free, but it's getting to a breaking point compared to the amount of time and effort involved. Advertising fees and overall donations have dropped dramatically.

I'm just putting it out there for a serious discussion. You can go to my Facebook page in order to discuss this issue. Lon

UPDATE: I have been thinking about a few options, but none satisfy my original intent of writing the blog and providing a free newsletter. Times have changed, but I'm hoping that I can rely on advertising and donations going forward. I have been lucky to have some very generous readers and fans...and I feel obligated to them to maintain the status quo for as long as possible.
