Programming note: Last week, quietly, I paused all billing for paid subscribers to this newsletter. (Thanks to all of you for the support, BTW!) Because this mailing list is now transitioning to its new form: This is now “The Southlander,” the bi-weekly free newsletter that accompanies our paid print issues.And the first of those print issues is now available for pre-order! I’m calling this a soft launch; I’ll make a more formal announcement soon.
