To My Amazing Blog Followers: Blog Subscriber List Has Been Moved
A post on Wednesday? Nobody saw that coming. Except for me, of course. I saw it coming.
I need to explain something. You are reading this post because you received an email notification. You either know exactly who I am and am curious about what this post is. OR you have no idea who this blue-haired writer is or what magic she is employing to push her notifications into your inbox.
Allow me to explain.
It began with the Great Blogging Scare of 2017. There were signs of it's coming. Signs that I, in my great stupidity, chose to ignore. It lead to chaos. Fire. Death.
Okay. Not those last two. But the first one is true. Why?
My Feedburner subscriber list vanished. All of you epic subscribers: Gone.
After recovering from a near-heartattack, I did some scrambling around and was able to recover almost all of the email addresses.
Unfortunately, a handful of brand new subscribers were lost. They have been sent off, I know not where. I mourn for them.
That's why I decided: I am leaving Feedburner. This blog post is to inform you about my (and your) pilgrimage to MailChimp.
Here's what you need to know:
Everything is okay. Don't panic. Seriously. Things are under control. Don't worry about it.
If you have received this post via email and know yourself to be a subscriber: You are on my subscriber list and have been safely moved over to MailChimp, where you will continue to receive notifications each time I publish a new post. Yay! You have successfully dodged a catastrophe that you weren't even aware of until just now. *throws confetti*
If you have not received this post via email and have found this post through other means, but believe yourself to be subscribed: Please enter your email into the sidebar or below:
#mc_embed_signup{background:#fff; clear:left; font:14px Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; } /* Add your own MailChimp form style overrides in your site stylesheet or in this style block. We recommend moving this block and the preceding CSS link to the HEAD of your HTML file. */

Be sure to verify your email. You will then become a new member of the Hannah Heath clan. Welcome. Come back next week to sprinkle some blood over a book and become a full-fledged member.
If you have received this post via email and do not know why: I can explain. You, at some point within the last almost-three-years, subscribed to my blog. Congratulations. You have excellent taste. However, you did not verify your email address with Feedburner, and thus never received any notifications from me. However, when I moved my subscriber list to MailChimp, your email was activated.
This means you will now receive notifications every time I publish a new post. There is no escape.
Just kidding. If you check out my blog and decide that it's not for you, you can simply unsubscribe. There's a link at the very bottom of the email notification you received that you can use to easily unsubscribe. Though I'm not really sure why you'd want to. Obviously, Past You did think it was a good idea to subscribe to this blog. But if you still want to unsubscribe, then you are a sad, strange little man and you have my pity.
Anyway. That's what's going on. Thank you for taking a moment out of your day to read this. I really appreciate your support and I'm very pleased to have moved us all to a safer, more secure email service. No more near-heart attacks.
