Time for another edition of Ringside Notes where we go behind the scenes and look at what’s happening and what’s coming up at Thoughtwrestling.  We’re going to talk about something new plus a contest!!

We’ve been active for close to three months now and we’ve seen the blog grow and community develop quite nicely during that time.

We’re going to take another step toward expanding Thoughtwrestling and developing community today by starting something new: a mailing list. It’s another way for us to stay in touch with you and give you chance to hear about things before they happen.

Here’s what we plan to offer you if you join the mailing list:

• A newsletter (possibly weekly) that will include links to our recent posts, original content, and more.
• Free stuff and deals
• Surprises
• Contests
• And anything else that we think you might like.

There’s a form at the bottom of this post that you can use to join our Thoughtwrestling mailing.  It’s an Aweber mailing list, including the double opt-in system, which means that even if you submit your E-mail address, you still have to click on a link in an E-mail to officially join the list.  This is good because it prevents people from signing you up without your knowledge or permission.

Your E-Mail address, when you join the mailing list, remains confidential and will not be shared with anyone.

Oh, almost forgot, there’s a little thank you gift for joining the E-Mail list:  a free eBook!  When you confirm your E-mail subscription, you’ll get the link to Thoughtwrestling – The Essential Starter, which includes some content you may have seen at the blog already and some stuff that you won’t have seen here.

And now the CONTEST:  for everyone who joins between now and Friday, June 25 at midnight EST, you’ll be entered in a draw to win free books!  There will be at least $50.00 worth of books and it will include, among other things, a copy of one of my all time favorite books, The Road Less Traveled by M. Scott Peck!  The books will be mailed to you!

I’ve been looking forward to this for some time and it’s time to get moving.  Time for you to sign up and join this new extension of the Thoughtwrestling community!

EDIT:  very pleased with the response so far!!!

Thanks for your continued support!

P.S. The form’s below.  If it doesn’t show up in E-Mail or in your RSS reader, you might have to click though to the blog and check it out on the actual post.
