Where Has My Fiction Newsletter Gone?

Many “Friend” fans will know we send out a weekly Fiction Newsletter, which features a special story we pick out from our Archives exclusively available to subscribers.

If you’re on our mailing list, but are worried you haven’t been receiving our emails lately, don’t worry!

We actually paused it a few weeks ago while we did some research to find out how our readers have been enjoying the newsletter since its launch last January. We also took the time to ask for thoughts on the content we share, and for suggestions on articles we could include in the future.

It was great to hear everyone’s thoughts — we have plenty to think about going forward. And we’re keen to add a few new features in the coming months!

But in the meantime, the newsletter’s schedule will be back to normal this week. So expect one to appear in your inbox on Friday evening!

This week, we’re featuring “A Deal In Hearts”, which was first published in “The People’s Friend” in August, 1913.
