Hello
My friends.
So I created this thread to show you guys My progress of how I created an newsletter and also ask for genuine advise from members better than Me.
Looks like all I needed was harsh replies with a little bit of embarrassment(though the embarrassmentwas not little I ambarresed Mysekf in front of @MJ DeMarco )
I will start explaining My process from tommorow.

Guys before I anyone say anything.
My newsletter is based on weekly short stories preferably based on Japanese Culture.
And I found it very hard to come across one short and good enough to be sent as a newsletter.
So I wrote a story Myself.....
Please guide Me about how the story is.

19s Japan there once was a certain man who lived in an certain town.
He lived all alone........ his Mother passed away during his birth and his father never arrived home from a business trip.
Stories where a cemet truck rolled over crushing the body of his father and concreting him to the street. Thats the last he heard of his loving father.

Despise such an past the brave man lived his life with great enthusiasm. Spending his time time under a certain tree located between his home to a steel mill where the man worked.

The man worked hard at the mill during the day, he never spoke to anyone and only focused on his work.

Then spent rest of his day under the tree resting and enjoying his day alone.
The tree was his only companion he considered.
His last wish was to be buried inside the tree instead of the land.

The man once found an beautifull young lady under the tree at his exact spot.
He unhesitantly sat down near the tree wondering soon she would leave.
Hours passed the young lady seemed to never leave.
Soon the day's end arrived and the man left for his home at sunset.

Unexpectedly the man came across the same situation the next day.
Exhausted from his day he angriely confronted her
"hey young lady thats My spot you are sitting at would you mind moving"
But all his anger completley vanished after hearing her sweetvoice.
They talked for hours and hours untill the night arrived and the man left for his home.

Tommorow the man met the young lady again. Like the day before they talked and talked till the night arrived. The man unhappy to leave asked
"oh young lady where do you live"
The woman replied
"I live in the tree"
The man unbelievingly asked
"then may I come and live with you"

The woman gave a great smile the one never seen before.......

The man was never seen again.
Untill the tree was c........

Thats th whole story please tell Me 2 things.
1 Should I send it as one email or compose it in 2?
2 Is it good enough to be sent?
3 Guide Me
As Stories are the best bases for My first newsletter I thought.
If anyone start a newsletter learn from this stories aren't easier to find when it is supposed to be short and fun and have to be sent as an email.

My advice is to invest more time into learning English or do something that doesn't require you to be proficient in the language.

In a casual setting, like a conversation, making spelling and grammar mistakes is acceptable. Newsletters are a formal setting, which means that you should be fluent in the language you're using.

Another option is to make a newsletter in your native language.

Anyhow, run your text through a grammar improvement software like Grammarly first.

Send it and see what is the feedback that your audience gives you on your short stories. See if they like it. A suggestion would be to maybe add a comment at the end stating Feedback is very much appreciated.

People do visit the landing page but don't subscribe.
Maybe storytelling is boring topic for this generation
I am planning on starting a fan newsketter for F1 or Fd racing series.
But maybe next season I want to try hard for this newsletter.

No one even opened the thing.

Maybe change out the Title, try to catch their attention with the Title. Have you sent emails in the past, do you have any analytical tools to test and see how many people have opened your previous emails of stories?

I don't think I have the liberty to give you the answers you are looking for, you will need to act, access, and adjust. Become a scientist. I am in no position to tell you what you should and should not do as I am still in this journey myself.

I'm sorry, but I do wish you the best of luck :). I am however, giving you suggestions on things I would try.
