April newsletters bring May subscribers (Part II)
As promised yesterday, I’m here1 with a new list of 50 newsletters that first posted on Substack in April 2021!
Since today is Star Wars Day, I am compelled (by a Jedi mind trick) to say:
May2 the 4th be with these newsletters.
After all, the very first (or fourth, depending on how you count) Star Wars movie begins with a newsletter post!3
In other words, today is Substack Day! 😁

Question: On Substack, where is “here”? Cyberspace? A Substack server? On the device you’re using to read this? Where the publisher is writing from? 🤔
It’s gotta be May. (Note: This is totally different from “It’s gonna be May.”)
I believe each subsequent movie begins with a post as well. Certainly Empire and Return. I’m not sure about the others. I haven’t seen most of them. Sorry.
Gratuitous footnote linking to Sub Pub’s 30 day free trial. See also yesterday’s footnote 2.
Guys! I'm a Doctor Who person! But how can I be such an ingrate? Thank you so, so much for the shout-out for http://annettelaing.substack.com (AKA Non-Boring History) and was that an awkward bit of self-promotion or what? Seriously, many thanks for helping a renegade history professor get the word out to people with 0 time and aren't sure they like history but are fed up with doomscrolling in waiting rooms. (Thanks) (Really)
