Migrating to Ghost

+ notes for paying members

Me changing platforms yet again (real)

Welp, I finally had time this weekend to fulfill the prophecy and switch from a Substack newsletter to a Ghost newsletter.

Behold, Annatations* dot com!!! https://www.annatations.com/

Current free members: You don’t have to do anything at all. All my Substack posts and free subscribers to this Substack newsletter have been imported to the new site.

Paying members to this Substack now have the option to get my paywalled posts on Ghost for just $2/month or $20/year, with the option of paying the same amount they are currently paying ($5/month or $50/year). This lower rate will hopefully mean that more people go for the paid option, while still allowing Anna Marie loyalists to continue supporting as they wish. There’s even a way to send one-time donations. This level of customization is just one of the many benefits of Ghost!

If you’ve paid for a yearly or monthly membership, you don’t have to do anything, either. In the next hour or so, I’ll grandmother you into the higher paid tier ($50/year or $5/month) and you won’t have to pay again until your subscription would have ended had you kept paying on Substack. I will freeze the Substack payments shortly, assuming the transfer goes well. If you run into any issues where you paid twice, please let me know.

Consider joining the $2 tier if you’d like! I am presuming that since you were willing to pay $5/month before, you still are. However, feel free to change your tier (you get all the same stuff) and definitely do not feel bad about it!!

I explain more about my decision to move platforms in my first-ever Ghost post.

Lastly, all my old posts will remain on Substack, but everything has been migrated to the new site. Any Substack article link should be the same, except you can replace the Substack address with “annatations.com”. For example,

“thatannamarie.substack.com/p/year-of-focus”

becomes

“annatations.com/year-of-focus”

Happy International Women’s Day!
