Shah – It should send you a confirmation email first, where you confirm that you want to subscribe to the mailing list. Once you confirm, you should get the “thanks for subscribing” message, and a link to the free download. Email me if it gives you trouble, OK? Thanks for joining DIY MFA!

Keep trying to subscribe but the button doesn’t seem to want to let me. It doesn’t do anything. I’m expecting it to lead to another ‘Thanks for subscribing’ type page? Doesn’t it do that?

Hi! Came here from Shelly Immel on G+.
Have you thought about making a page there just for the topics & exercises? And having a hangout?
Shelly & I used to hangout frequently, and it’s really an enhancement – I would think reading work & hearing immediate feedback would be a bonus there.

I’m very glad to hear that the program will be tailored to each individual writer’s interests.

And the Google+ idea is a great one. I don’t like the limitations on Twitter, and I miss a lot in my stream on Twitter. Having my own DIYMFA circle on Google+ would solve a lot of problems, like missing tweets or Facebook posts.

Thank you for this program. I’m very excited about participating.

Excellent idea! G+ is actually something I’ve got in the pipeline. Any suggestions or ideas for how we could make the most of G+ for this project? Do share because I’d love to hear about it!

As always, I love hearing comments and suggestions so if any of you think there’s something important missing from DIY MFA, shoot me an email or leave a comment! (Psst, also just because something isn’t part of DIY MFA right now doesn’t mean it’s not already in the works… 🙂 )

My goal is that as DIY MFA grows, we can have lots of different online (and maybe even offline) avenues for people to connect with each other and the program. That way, everyone will be able to engage with DIY MFA in a way that feels good to them.

Have you thought about using google+ too? I don’t have twitter or a facebook account, which is why I ask. (Email was hacked thanks to facebook and I just don’t have the patience for twitter. Too verbose to confine myself to micro-blogging.)
