The idea of doing a newsletter offends against one of my core creative principles, which is, "Never say anything more predictive than, 'Watch this!'".
That said, I did have a thingy once, a kind of predecessor if you will of what it is I do here, which involved my emailing essays at friends I thought would be amused by them, on a wholly unpredictable schedule. It quickly fizzled out because of lack of synergy: without a comment forum, without the feedback from the audience, my creative energies dissipated.
Is there some reason you can't do a blog? Or have a newsletter that says, "New thing at my blog"?
There was a band I liked (well, duo) that had very funny newletters, with lots of spoof news stories and similar that connected with their style/genre of music. Looked like a lot of work, though.
