Big Change for Chair Notes

When I started Chair Notes in 2007, I had no idea it would be such an amazing catalyst in my life and career. Many hundreds of post later, I can’t even imagine my life without it. It’s led me to many wonderful opportunities, such as my book, magazine articles and videos.

In recent years, with the advent of Instagram and having my attention pulled in too many directions, I’ve let my interaction with the blog slow to mostly informing about upcoming events. But I’m changing that.

I am heading full on into continuing to build Chairnotes as a communication tool and resource for other makers as well as a place to develop my own skills and work through ideas. I am including more videos and instructional tips. To do this, I am moving the blog over to Substack, which is a writers platform that is easy to use, has tools to expand the audience, and gives the reader a chance to help support the effort with a small monthly or yearly contribution. I will be offering lots of free content as well as some that is exclusive to supporters. My plan is to move my list of blog recipients from this venue to Substack, so you will be getting this feed from a new location and might need to sign up. I’m sure many of you already have, with great writers such as Chris Schwarz and Peter Follansbee already posting there. If you don’t want me to transfer your subscription, please unsubscribe here and you won’t be on the list. I already have posts over there and if you want to check it out to see if you want to follow me over, check out this link, https://petergalbert.substack.com/.

I appreciate your time and support over the years, and hope you will consider chipping in help me to continue to build Chairnotes.

thanks,

Pete
