Paid Subscription Drive

Hi all,

Thank you for subscribing to my newsletter! Please know that your support, of any and all forms, is appreciated.

Today I am writing to you with a brief announcement: I am currently running a subscription drive. Namely, to be able to continue my reporting and writing at the current pace, I would like to be able to raise at least 9 more paid Substack subscriptions by 23 June. Such subscriptions will be critical to helping me maintain my status as a freelancer in Greece, where certain business-related costs (in addition to living costs) are involved.

To be able to raise these subscriptions and as a way of saying thanks to my subscribers, I am currently offering paid Substack subscriptions for 40 percent off for the first year. If you have enjoyed this newsletter thus far and are in a position to contribute, I would like to kindly ask for you to consider a paid subscription at this time. To redeem your offer, click here before 23 June.

At the time of writing, I would prefer to keep my work free to read, without a paywall, to keep it accessible to all. Of course, I completely understand that many may not be in a position to consider a paid subscription. However (and only if necessary), I may eventually consider putting certain materials behind a paywall in the future to be able to keep reporting and writing at the current pace.

Thank you for your time, and thank you for supporting this newsletter! As always, your thoughts, feedback, and reporting recommendations are always welcomed at my email (stavroula.pabst@proton.me). If you already support this newsletter with a paid subscription, I thank you kindly for your contribution to this project.

Enjoy your summer!

Sincerely,

Stavroula Pabst
