“The times they are a changin’” is a song written and recorded by Bob Dylan back in 1964.  It came to mind when I was writing this email. Let me tell you about things that “are a changin’” around here.

Last week Neighbors Magazine (where my “As I See It” column has been published since January 2013) made an addition to how they publish their magazine. They added a Web site: (www.neighborsmag.net)

Neighbors Magazine, in its 12th year of publication. offers rural friendly content covering Southeast Iowa and all the Midwest. You will find columnists that portray lifestyles of rural living and articles that cover local businesses, and personal stories of our readers. In addition to its Web site it also distributes a free, full-color print version that is mailed to all of Keokuk County, and portions of Iowa, Jefferson, Mahaska, Poweshiek, Wapello, and Washington Counties.

The Web site offers a second option on how to read their magazine. It also allows anyone from outside the distribution area to also enjoy the stories and advertising they publish in print two times a month. I personally send hard copies to several friends that have moved out of the area. I also have an email group that I send a copy of just my column to.

With the changes the editors of Neighbors Magazine have made, I decided to also make some changes.

For those of you that want to read my column, all the other columns, the articles, check on all the ads – the whole magazine – you can now find it on their Web site.

I have also been thinking of a way to pass on some of my thoughts on “A little bit about a lot of things” that haven’t been included in a column for the magazine. (Some results from my research.)

I recently published a book that included all my old columns published from 2013 through 2023. I am now offering a special “Introductory Offer” for the book. It includes a FREE lifetime subscription to a special email titled “As I See It – Monday Morning Musings.”  The email will be sent out on Monday of each week. The emails sent on the second and fourth Monday of the month will also include my column from the magazine that was published the previous Thursday. (See more below.)

Introductory offer of $30

As I See It – Monday Morning Musings

A weekly email that includes “A little bit about a lot of things” delivered to your Inbox on Monday each week. Emails on the second and fourth week of the month will also include my column from the magazine that was published the previous Thursday.

(When I discover something interesting, I drop everything and share it with my neighbors.)
