View Printer Friendly FormatJust over a year ago Dennis Crean stepped down as our newsletter editor and I offered to take the reins from him and do four issues. This year I plan to go to Thailand to continue my monastic training, so this issue will be my last.
In the summer 2007 issue there was a resubscription form included. At that time we mailed out 750 paper newsletters to people and about an equal number received an email notification about a website version of the newsletter. Less than 300 people sent the resubscription form back to receive a paper newsletter, and now there’s over 1000 people who get an email notification about the online newsletter, and thousands more worldwide who rely on the website as their main source of Dhamma and news coming from the monastery. As a result of this shifting balance, it seems logical to focus more in-house energy on updating the website.
This is not to say we’re definitely doing away with a paper version of our newsletter. All things considered, we’re leaving the future of Fearless Mountain newsletter wide open. If you’re interested in helping Abhayagiri to continue with a paper newsletter, even in a small way, don’t hesitate to send us an email: . If you have editorial, layout, or other skills and you would like to contribute to a newsletter we’d like to know about it. If you’re interested in helping with a one-time project such as a pamphlet or writing articles for us, drop us a line.
