*BEST ADVICE
ON FUNDRAISING: GET IT OVER WITH Everybody hates fundraising, you do and we do
too. Faster really is better. If you go the Sustainer Subscriber route, you get
no fundraising emails. That's my personal recommendation. We are inspired by
your support, it's true. / Marc Ash - Founder, Reader Supported
