Hungry for Gumbo
by David Burn, $1/month
A writer wants to have something something savory simmering on a burner at all times. And in this age of media immediacy, I think it's important to slow down and let ideas develop over a period of days and weeks, versus the minutes and hours a daily demands. That's where an email newsletter can deliver value, like a slow cooker.

Topically speaking, Hungry for Gumbo is a smattering of literary and dramatic content, along with movie and music recommendations, travel and business writing, featured photos, random facts and poignant quotes. I also spice the dish with politics and other hot topics, as needed.

Payment is managed each month via Amazon Payments, which is quick and easy to join. When you subscribe, the most recent edition of the newsletter will be sent to you, as well as all upcoming newsletters.
