self-promo and meta-promo alert: singles club!

So I started the Dark Beloved Cloud Singles Club about three months ago--follow the link for details, but it's basically an art-for-music-and-art exchange. (Upcoming singles include Nothing Painted Blue, Sarah Dougher, the Cannanes, Ninetynine, Kimya Dawson and more Family Fodder.) I've discovered that, in some ways, it's a lot easier to promote something I'm selling than something I'm giving away for free-but-you-have-to-make-some-art-first.

Anyone have any ideas about how I can get the word about it out to people who'd appreciate it? Mailing lists, people you know who might be interested, whatever? (Yes, this is a sneaky way of actually attempting to spread the word here; apologies for the advertising in what's usually a fairly hype-free zone.) You can post here or email me privately, whatever's better for you.

(The address to send your cards is on the bottom of the home page. Yes, this is a deliberate trick to make you look at the catalogue.)

Not sure this is a smart move ... it's the third time I visited this site and I only just figured out where to send the cards ...

I suppose you could give us all these things for free, but that would defeat the point (though I did just relisten to some Ninetynine yesterday and rememebered how much I liked them -- thanks Di!).

Phil--thanks for the suggestion. I've fixed things to make it a little clearer now...
