Really? Did you poll the membership before you started sending
self-promotional email to the list?
Best,

so in all fairness to the membership, I will do what Glenn did not:
Ask what you think.
I've gotten a few emails from people who wanted to know more details than my
fatigued brain remembered to put in, which is the only reason I sent multiple
postings. Normally I am not a Bloody Viking. I apologize for the repeat
postings.
I do note in passing that I am unaware of any objections to other members
seeking gainful employment via this mailing list-- which is what I did too.

Subject: Re: [Basfa] Author reading/signing at B & N
Tact is not one of my great talents, but let me try to make a
suggestion. First, by way of motivation, I should like to point out
that by signing up for the BASFA list, I do not feel that I have signed
up for the Matthew Joseph Harrington announcement list. To be truthful,
I consider your messages more than a little spam-like.
With that in mind, I would like to suggest that you get your own mailing
list. Once you do that, I don't anyone would complain if you sent an
email to the BASFA list saying "Here's how to subscribe to my new
announcement list...". From then on, your announcements would only go
to those that want them without irritating (and I know I am not the only
BASFAn irritated by this) those that don't.
Best,
Glenn

Please excuse the brain fart. The reading of String, from Man-Kzin Wars XII, will
occur at 3 PM, Saturday, June 6, at Barnes & Noble, in the Pruneyard, at the
corner of Campbell and Bascom, in Campbell, California, USA. Anyone who has a book
signed will get additional material: annotations of my stories so far, details of
how they developed, and general inside info.
