Exciting news—We've finally found a way to do a paid indie media bundle so you don't have to separately subscribe to so many newsletters.

Now you can get a 30-day trial of @katelynburns.com @kattenbarge.bsky.social and my publications in your inbox for one [heavily discounted] price!

Any way to support this if we're already in the Handbasket?

it will detect your handbasket sub and just sign you up for the other two (and reduce your price as appropriate)

This looks promising. What happens after the 30 days?

You can decide which subscriptions you'd like to continue with. Speaking for myself, I'll be offering a discount for bundle subscribers to subscribe to The Handbasket for a year.

God fuck yes, I wanted to condense some of my "too many subscriptions for words." Like I think I'm paying well over $100 for all the independent folks I'm subscribed to and I am sadly also paying for grad school out of pocket sooooo this is an incredible day for me.

Not sure what the market research shows vis a vis price sensitivity but I know I'd pay more for more.

This sounds fabulous

when you have 50 or 100 people in the bundle let me know and I will send some money

long long overdue

also: in about 30 years, if this takes off, it will become a monster that feeds on indie journalists, that is how the world works

How about bundling about 200 journalists and opinion writers together and formatting them in one web page? There’s a word for that.

Well I was expecting this to be a pain since I’m already an annual premium Handbasket subscriber, but it automatically recognized my email and everything was super easy.

Do I need to unsubscribe from you to subscribe to the bundle to avoid duplicate charges? Or does my subscription just get overridden?

you’ll get the discounted price for the other two and your original handbasket subscription will remain untouched!

when i entered my email address, it found that i already had a handbasket subscription and adjusted the price accordingly. at the risk of sounding like an audience plant, it’s almost impossible for this to be any easier!
