I recently stated I would not use Substack for my main blog, though I was not against using it to see if I could improve my readership numbers. Substack has a decidedly useful method of ensuring high readership numbers quickly. However, I am loathe to commit anything to a platform that I think is essentially syphoning money and to a certain extent corralling those whom I can only describe as being interested in the continuation of the best European Christianity has had to offer.
So my main blogging will remain at www.gfilotto.com but as an experiment, I have decided to use Substack to post either short stories I occasionally write or, serialised ones. I started out with the idea of writing a serialised daily diary of Orpo Field Inspector Kord Siegfried Neubauer. Those of you who have read my NAZI MOON Omnibus will be familiar with this character. Those of you who have not, you may want to remedy this terrible lacuna in your literary prowess and immediately order a copy here (digitally) or follow the link there to get a doorstopper in paper format from amazon
.
The idea I had is to follow the entries in the Inspector’s field-report book and/or private diary concerning the investigation he did on Luna in the think of Nazi society, that led to his being both valued as an investigator, yet shunned for promotion.
As usual, I have not promoted this Substack at all, not introduced email lists to the queries formed and so on, so, we’ll see if this project lasts at all or if it even takes off.
Settings are all free for now, but I certainly would appreciate any support you guys may be willing to give down the line.
