ISSUE HISTORY

ISSUE 1 - 7 pages, 2.4 MB. Published on Thursday, March 31st, 2022 @ 1:25 AM CST - I think I worked at least 12 hours on this issue to get it to a decent length to make it worth exporting to a pdf file and upload it online. This issue set the stage for what direction I wanted to go in terms of providing updates about my photography and other work, plus sharing links to useful websites and resources.

ISSUE 2 - 31 pages - Published on Friday, April 29th, 2022 @ 2:30 AM CST - During editing of this newsletter one week into April 2022 on the 7th, Thursday, and after running a test pdf export in Taskade to see how much this newsletter had grown from the first published issue (28 pages from 7 pages), I made the decision to start publishing this newsletter with Open Office. I love Taskade, and Taskade makes compiling this newsletter a breeze, but I fear in the long run that Taskade as a web application may not be up to the task of publishing an extremely long document that this newsletter is becoming. I am foreseeing MUDWALKER NEWSLETTER reaching several hundred pages in just a few months since it is an ongoing project with new info added each month, and not just a singular edition with each issue. So on Thursday, April 7th, 2022, I stopped adding information into this newsletter long enough that I can copy the entirety of information in this publication over to a new document in Open Office. It's for the better in the long-run I think, since I can add a table of contents in Open Office, which is definitely needed for a large publication like this one. [UPDATE - Friday, April 22nd, 2022] - I didn't actually stop adding information like I said I would, and I didn't get to copy this content into a new document. Perhaps in the next issue.

ISSUE 3 - 178 pages. Published on Wednesday, June 8th, 2022 @ 11:06 PM CST [Saturday, May 7th, 2022 @ 4:17 AM CST] - I'm finally getting around to copying my newsletter over to a document in Open Office, and I have a table of contents going for this newsletter there now. It's going to make this newsletter much easier to navigate, and I think more fun to write. I'm not moving completely out

ISSUE 4 - 194 pages. Published on Sunday, July 24th, 2022 @ 1:24 AM CST - This issue was made available extremely late in July 2022, but the main thing is that I was able to make it available before the month was over. I had a lot of things going on in my life from nearly getting kicked out of my home because some folks can't handle some truthful words, lost 2 vehicles I could drive, acquired another one, and basically my life was very crazy.

ISSUE 5 - 200 pages. Published on Tuesday, September 13th, 2022 @ 7:10 PM CST - This issue skips the month of August 2022, and includes all website updates since Issue 4. There is no additional newsletter content added in this issue. My time had to be prioritized with other issues in life. Again this issue is getting out late in the month in September 2022. I am working on getting my ducks in a row so that I can be better at publishing on time. My apologies to those who waited for the delay.

ISSUE 6 - 204 pages. Published on Tuesday, October 4th, 2022 @ 2:33 PM CST - This issue makes a turn to getting publishing done on time during the month of October 2022. Over the past few issues, I haven't had much time to add a lot of new content to this newsletter due to working on other important projects, but new content will come when time permits.
