For many years, your social media platform was stressed as the most important thing an author had to do (besides writing a good book, of course). But times change. Social media apps rise and dive in popularity. People take breaks from social media, often for their own mental well-being.

Email is still around. People who sign up for newsletters check their email. No algorithms to worry about, only a catchy subject line.

In this episode, I will cover the reasons I believe starting a newsletter is a smart idea for all authors (even if you’re just starting out) as well as how to go about starting a newsletter and how to start getting those subscribers.
