Monday Report
Brief note: Welcome to our first AwardsDaily daily newsletter. If you’ve come here from our previous mailing list, welcome. If you are not up for the daily rundown, you can easily unsubscribe below. This might become the permanent home of our breaking newsletter too. But we haven’t yet made that decision. For now, it will continue to live over at Mailchimp.
This newsletter will have a morning report, and might at some point include podcasts of the news by me. AwardsDaily will still publish our stories and news but this is an easy way to get the rundown. We will be thinking about it as we move forward.
This newsletter is ad free for the moment. If that changes, we will let you know and perhaps offer a premium ad-free version. But we’re getting way ahead of ourselves.
Anyway, welcome.
