I looked at your newsletter again SB and have to say that I was very impressed.

I didn't agree with your opinion on everything, but the articles were interesting to read, anyway. The layout looks GREAT, and you have a knack for engaging the reader (gettting and keeping their attention).

At first I just glanced through it and, like I said, it looked great. I then went back to the top and read the first article. I actually only saw 2 mistakes (if there was a third one, I missed it somewhere). Unfortunately, they were both in the very first article. If that had been my first time reading your newsletter, I might not have read any further. Not because there were mistakes, but because I would have thought (subconsciously) that if you didnt take the time to correct them, that you probably didnt take the time to evaluate what you were talking about enough, or have the experience, to be able to offer a strong, credible opinion. However, I was impressed enough with the layout and features (Pirate Soduku... cool!), that I might have continued reading anyway.

I really hope you dont think I just want to be critical (Keep in mind that I'm an adult, a bit of a perfectionist, and perhaps a little more critical than the average reader). But, if I wasn't impressed with your talent and creativity, and didn't think you had the desire and potential to really do something with them, then I wouldn't even have replied. That's exactly why I replied - because I think you have a tremendous amount of of potential and would like to see you go somewhere with it. Perhaps one day you could be writning newsletters for Disney. Like I said before, keep it up!
