David Everett Fisher Dot Com on Substack
Or how do I make more friends?
Why do Substack?
I have been doing davideverettfisher.com for over 12 years now, and while I love having my name as a website, figuring out my voice, and experimenting with different things, I have not really grown an audience.
What will happen to davideverettfisher.com?
Nothing. I will still have it. I will make free content there while I create newsletters here. I want to grow my audience, and my website just isn’t bringing in new readers, and I’ve been losing readers over the last few years. Basically, my friends and family are done with my shit.
What will the newsletters be like?
I have just written a book and designed a tarot deck, the Infinite Fool Tarot. The book tells the story of the cards as the Fool meanders through the world of tarot and his story, we can tell our own. I want to expand on that world, use this space to market and advertise, and reach new people who may love what I have done and am doing. There are infinite stories in this deck. I also believe there are so many other tools that can be offered in these myths and symbols.
I also want to expand on my life in AA as an agnostic and have been writing a book called The Superstitious Agnostic, a book sharing how one can work the very religious and spiritual 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous without needing a definition of a higher power or even a belief of one. I got sober over 30 years ago and feel that there are some things that have helped me stay sober and live a better life without supernatural aid.
Then when can I get these books?
That is exactly why I am doing these newsletters. I need to know that I have an audience for these books and that I have a way to communicate with and know them. I am hoping that setting up a “brand” of what I am doing will make it easier to publish these projects. Hopefully, by actually getting some engagement with an audience, I will have a better sense of what I am doing right and what I need to work on.
