There’s been a tiny delay in getting issue 5 off to the printer. Let me explain. I’m pretty light on subscriptions this year (down by around 100 from last year), and after I received feedback from a few people that they wanted a different payment option than PayPal, I set about trying to make that happen. (Note: I am many things, but I am not a website designer, or at least I’ve had no training in it. This is why people usually pay experts to design their websites for them, but I’m either too cheap or too stubborn, so I fumbled through my own website design with WordPress.) Anyway, it took several days, some bursts of profanity, and a chat with a helpful tech at WordPress, but I finally have more payment options: PayPal, Venmo, and credit card. Subscribers can also pay by check (which I actually prefer because there aren’t any fees.) Please check out the new ordering page https://kingfisherjournal.com/shop/ and if you have any questions about your subscription status, email me at kingfisher journal@gmail.com. And for those of you who’ve already ordered 2022 subscriptions, THANK YOU!!
I’ll have Kingfisher #5 ready to send to the printer by the end of the week, and I’d love to be able to bump up the quantity that I’m ordering, because the more copies I order, the cheaper it is per copy, which helps keep this journal afloat.
In case you need some extra enticement to order a subscription, here’s a list of everyone who’s in #5. And did I mention that the 2022 cover art is by Aidan Castle? (Check out his gorgeous kingfisher art here: https://kingfisherjournal.com.) Thank you for your support!
