Increasingly, newsletters have become a way for writers to publish their thoughts and writings, and send it directly into readers' inboxes. We speak to Darshini Kandasamy, CEO of Between the Lines, which describes itself as 'a daily email that summarises the main Malaysian news you need to know, with context, bite and wit.' We discuss the pleasures and challenges that come with running a newsletter, and finding a readership. And then on Footnotes, we talk about the newsletters we're subscribed to.
