Editor’s Note:
I just wanted to say how remarkable to find so many writers/authors willing to share their work so
freely. As a fellow writer I appreciate and understand the great effort they all put into their works.
I would like to humbly ask that if you, for some reason, are not happy with their work, that you do
not report them as spam, but just unsubscribe. Reporting their work as spam can be quite harmful to
their progress as a writer, as well as their professional image.
You will be receiving newsletters from all the writers of this box set and those who have committed
to putting this one and the next one together. You will be automatically given a link to the next box
set as a result of entering this promotion. It should become available sometime in July. And it’s bigger
yet!
Please honor their hard work and efforts by at least giving their newsletter a looksie. If you still feel
you are unwilling to receive further newsletters, then just unsubscribe.
They are not spamming you. I would just like to remind you that you agreed to accept this box set in
exchange for your email address for their newsletters.
So please, worst case scenario, just unsubscribe. I trust you will have hours of pleasurable reading.
Most sincerely, John Pirillo, Editor
