Reminder: email newsletter moving to Mondays

Posted by William Gallagher

0

It’s an experiment to see whether writing you productivity tips will be more useful on a Monday when you’re starting your week than on a Friday when you’re finishing. Put like that, it makes sense. But we’ll see.

The weekly newsletter is a free email that includes news, productivity tips and also details of events plus a Buy of the Week.

Also popular in it are the sections on what I’ve been writing – you like holding me to account, don’t you? – and what I’ve been reading. I love that you like that: it stops me feeling guilty when I break off work to read something new each week.

Sign up for the free newsletter here and expect it in your email on Monday morning.

Read all about it – not only productivity news, not only an Android Buy of the Week, but also the sad tale of how I drooled over someone next to me at an event.

To find out more about the news and of how well she did or didn’t take that, read this week’s free newsletter now – and then go get it sent to you automatically every week.

I am so tempted to hold off telling you this for just a short time because it would be gorgeously meta, if not Escher-ish. For this post you’re reading now is number 497 and during this week’s email newsletter I mention that The Blank Screen will reach 500 posts today. What if this were the 500th post? Wouldn’t that be great?

I don’t play games.

Especially not when I don’t think of them in time.

So.

In this 497th post, let me tell you about the 8th email newsletter from The Blank Screen which this time contains military productivity advice – you’ll never guess what – and some news about chocolate plus hope for all heel-wearing women and a true bargain Buy of the Week for Mac users. Read all about it here and if you fancy getting it delivered to you automatically on Friday mornings, sign up for free there.
