Warren Ellis announced today that he would be shutting down his Bad Signal mailing list, after roughly a decade of service.

In a statement released to subscribers, Ellis gave the following explanation:

“I never have time for proper entries any more, I’m just flinging links at you, and that’s really no good.  As things get busier and busier here, I just don’t have the mental space to write the Signal as well as everything else.  Something has to go, and the Signal is it.  It has the lowest response rate of everything I do.  And I think the end of a decade is a good time to shut it off. It’s way past time.  I’ve been doing it since the 90s, after all.

So, Bad Signal will be considered dead from 1 January 2010. There’ll be a few more notes between now and then, but I’m announcing this in advance, so that the people who need updates can grab RSS feeds from warrenellis.com or freakangels.com, or even find me on twitter.com/

I hate to say it, but I’ll miss getting a regular dose of Warren in my box!
