The MeW Mailing List (including the MeW Newsletter)

Edward Livingston-Blade

Anyone may subscribe to the Mearn's World mailing list (and the project's more-or-less monthly newsletter) by clicking here and hitting "send."* The newsletter is a big deal within the project, and a lot of effort goes into it each month (that's a thumbnail "sample" of issue #8 on the left). Each issue includes exclusive artwork (some of it "preview" work, some of it "insider" artwork in the form of unpublished character designs and the like) and occasional articles on MeW, all in advance of being seen anywhere else, as well as plenty of behind-the-scenes info!

I have occasional trouble getting mail through to Yahoo addresses. If you normally use Yahoo then if you have a secondary e-mail address with which you can sign up for MeW instead, my experience is that I'm more likely to be able to get mail through to you.

My present e-mail address is: barking_frog@roadrunner.com.

I'm starting (as I write this in Feb '07) to promote MeW around the Internet. I would like people to be able to contact me easily, and nothing's more easy than e-mail.

The problem is that any heavily-posted e-mail address ends up on every spammer on the Internet's mailing list, and before long becomes a time drain for the owner to use.

In order to try to dodge that bullet, anywhere where I would normally post my e-mail address, I am instead going to link to this page. This page will always list the e-mail address I'm using for general public communication at any given time. In this way, I hope to be able to change my e-mail address periodically when the spam gets thick without losing everybody who might have my 'old' address.

So, please, if you add me to your address book, also add a memo that if that address becomes defunct, this page is where you'll find current contact info.

P.S. If you're googling for "Ed Blade" or "Edward Blade" or even "Eddie Blade" formerly of Galesburg, Augusta, Kalamazoo, Marshall, Grand Rapids, Battle Creek and similarly disreputable parts of southwestern Michigan, that's me before I changed my name when I married my wife, Leah Livingston-Blade (nee Livingston). ^.^ If you're looking for me under an old e-mail address you've found somewhere and are in doubt about whether or not this is the me that you're looking for, addresses I've used in the past include: 'edward_leah@earthlink.net', 'qwerty5@earthlink.net', 'sbcs@bigfoot.com', 'qwerty1@adelphia.net', and 'barking_frog@adelphia.net'.
